[slim] Re: SlimServer for photos?

The HD MediaBox looks pretty good, but since I already have the SS/SB combo, its capabilities are overkill, and a little expensive for what I'm looking for... The cheapest one they have is USD $360 without a hard drive. I was thinking of spending about half that amount for a deidacted

Thanks for all your replies. I didn't want to start a pissing fight, just wanted to get a better feel if I should jump on the 6.5 bandwagon early, or just wait until it's released. All your input helps! -- j.e.f.f

Hi folks I've been trying to figure out what SlimServer 6.5 has that 6.2 doesn't. From what I've been able to find over the last few days, 6.5 has a bunch more features... what are these features? Are they worth installing 6.5 and putting up with its beta status for the next little bit? I

OK thanks. I usually play an album in its entirety and do not continue to browse, so I would prefer the now playing screen to come up right away, and then the VU Meter screen saver to kick in after the set amount of time. It's really not a big deal. I was hoping there was an option I had
