Hi all
yesterday I upgraded to 6.1.1 hoping it would be more stable than the
6.0.x I was running (I'v a SB1 wired), however it didn't improve :-(
I set the thing scanning the music library (60+GB), but it was impossible to
listen to music while it was doing that, so I had to stop the music
And the scanning takes forever, I restarted the server, but it's now
used 5 hours of CPU time, that can't be normal!
Do you have symbolic links or playlists in your music folders?

Cheers for the reply.
Am I right in understanding that setting it up this way slimserver is
running on the laptop, as well as softsqueeze? Slimserver on the
laptop will read the music files from the PCserver.
So, once I have set up SB2 in the lounge, the PCserver will be running
SlimServer and
No - slimserver is only running where you installed it. Softsqueeze is
running on the laptop and connects to your existing server. And yes,
softsqueeze can sync with other (physical) players.

Current firmware doesn't give you an easy way to get to a web browser-
you have to do it using the game Wipeout Pure. Sony just released a new
firmware version a couple days ago with a proper web browser built in,
but it's Japan only at the moment. Should make it over here soon.
You're right,

Holding down the buttons does make the list move fast enough, but I
