Well, it looks like there is nothing wrong with the FuzzyTime code with
regard to positioning the text on a slimp3. The bug is actually in the
slimp3's centering logic when you give it a string padded with spaces on
the front - the spaces just get chopped off. If I change the padding to

Correct, that was the comparison I was trying to make.
It's not a valid comparison if you look among people in this community
who mostly is happy to have LMS installed on a computer

I took the first step tonight. I figured the code out enough to change
it so that it updates once per second rather than once per text change.
:) Next I'll probably figure out why the plugin doesn't work right on
the slimp3.

I'm reluctant to pass comment on any of this, since we have no real idea
what ickStream actually is or does. However, maybe I'm a bit of a
Luddite as I really don't like all this 'cloudy' thing ... so I guess
I'll have to wait with baited breath to see just what this development
offers.

You can do that with ickStream, if you like. But what is your "cloud at

So if LMS failed then the Squeezebox device can still be maintained on
your system and local music can be carried in other ways. Sounds great.
I look forward seeing the progress you have made. Good luck and thanks

real development and maintenance has been with others.

Nope, that's perfectly fine and understandable. I'm just super happy
