Can I ask a naive question. For someone like me who just uses my
squeezeboxes and LMS to stream music from a local server, isn't this
setup impervious so long as I have the hardware and LMS software plus
relevant plugins such as Airplay to feed my Liberatone Zipp. I
understand as technology and s

This is really more PLEX question than an LMS one.
I have both running on my local network. Often my internet goes down but
LMS still streams nicely to my Squeezeboxes throughout the house. This
is as expected as my music is stored locally. But the same doesn't
happen with PLEX even though I hav
I've got the Zipp 2 and it works fine with the airplay plugin too. It

Thanks Michael. Oh well, I'll either wait (in vaiin?) for logitech to
implement airplay2 or UpnP on the the Blast range or go for another
decent battery powered airplay speaker. At this stage other than the
expensive and not waterproof Zipp range there aren't many options, but

Just a quick question following on my previous post.
Can I play LMS on UE Blast/Megablast from my phone via the SB Player app
via wifi? Currently I play LMS on on my UE Boom in this way via
Bluetooth, but if don't much like Bluetooth so would love to switch to
wifi. I know it doesn't have airpla
All very interesting, but isn't there a good chance that Logitech/UE
will, in due course, simply enable AirPlay or UPnP-AV for ther Blast
range of speakers. I'm hoping this is on their agenda.

Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. I really appreciate it.
Anyway, I now have a good idea of the options and I can weight them up.
I can't re-purpose my current (soon to be old) computer as it's too big
for the cupboard option and I don't feel like downsizing it to fit. I

Come on. Please just quick advice form someone who's been there before
(which I assume was many of you). It was the default position back in

Im a long time user of LMS (10 years) and have always just kept my
files on my Windows 7 PC and streamed the music from there to my various

Thanks. Good to know there are other options than trying to hunt down
another SB Boom secondhand.
What do people think is better general term, including future proofing,

Forgive the clueness nature of my question but am I right to suppose
that I can just get one of these wireless speakers, like a Google Home

I'm a long time SB user. I organise my 76,000 odd tracks on my computer
the following way: Music folder; 15 subfolders with different generes of
classical music; thousands of sub-sub-folders with individual albums,
many of which involve mutliple cds (so sub-sub-sub folders for each cd).

Thanks. I thought so, but it is good to get confirmation. Time is short
and I didn't want to muck around trying to do something that wouldn't
work a priori.

Sorry for this basic question, but I have just moved and the internet is
taking an interminable amount of time to connect.
While I am waiting I'm wondering if I can set up my wifi modem/router in
the house and just stream music to my SB duet in the normal way? Or do I
need an internet connection
