I've finally moved away from Squeezeboxes after many happy years. The
community has been a great support over the years so - thanks!
It's fairly quiet here these days and Squeezeboxes can be in short

The AirPlay bridge does not require you to enter the apple ecosystem at

for seemingly messing up my whole ing system. These new updates
should have been optional. I have everything working perfectly under
7.3 and now i can't get anything right. I have no (easy) way of
updating my QNAP. Napster CONSTANTLY buffers and i have to download new
firmware EVERY time
If you don't have an SB Radio and you don't connect directly to
mysqueezebox.com (formerly squeezenetwork.com) then you don't have to
upgrade to 7.4.x. You can keep running 7.3.x on the QNAP, and as long as
you connect to MySB.com through the QNAP, you don't have to upgrade the
SC/SBS on the QNAP
I had a similar problem in that my duet upgraded to the latest version
about a month ago but my QNAP was still at 7.3.x. In the end I had to
reprogram my controller using an SD card.
Then when SSOTS had been updated to handle 7.4, I tried it on my QNAP
and it works without any problems. Before
The wait is over - my Duet just arrived at my door. I ordered it from
Slimdevices last Friday. I am impressed by how fast it made it along
the West Coast up to Vancouver, Canada!
I should have ordered from you guys right away - instead I tried to
order from a local reseller. What a big mistake.

I have been with slim devices since I bought 3 slimp3s many moon ago. I
used a Mac as my server and had quite a few issues initially and
remember my many emails to tech support were often from Sean himself,
and many of my issues were fixed in a day or two with the nightlies.
I now have 3 SBIIIs
And they just keep coming with good stuff years after you bought your
device.
Had mine SB3 for two years or so and there are new features added all

struggled with those things.

But I also agree that if you put too much in the SB itself, you may as well
use a HTPC. I like the current client/server model.
