One of the things I look for is bands that are capable of doing whole albums like "Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit". I know we had the "one hit wonders" like "J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers", but the one hit wonders don't seem to have that formula for longevity that we saw in the 60's. Main

I say thanks to Logitech and to Michael for keeping LMS alive and well. Imho it’s still the best music server software by some way. Others - Room & Plex spring to mind - have features that I’d like to see it in LMS but none is fundamentally as good at some core stuff such as playlist management

I tried reinstalling SDT with no luck. But I found two more things. I can change the second SB back and forth between SDT and DateTime while the "Blank" SB is not affected when I change the screensaver. But I have found that, if I start the "Blank" SB, go into mysqueezebox.com and then back into
