I like a lot about SC7, but, I had to revert back to 6.5 because of the
lack of ability to play shorten files. Yes, I do know the advantages
of flac and I do convert shn to flac as time permits. This being said,
the one of the things I love about the Transporter is the ease of
listening to
There a couple things I'd like to see slimserver7
-RhapsodyDirect support. Browse, search, and play from the Rhapsody
Music service natively. This will enable rhapsody streams to be pushed
to all squeezeboxes in the network. :-)
- NetRemote/mediaBridge support, so slimserver can display tracks,
Hmm, well since Rhapsody Direct support has been in SC7 for many months
now, maybe you should give it a try?

Why it's maybe not such a great idea to go six months between releases.

The page shows 6.5.4 as the latest version still -- when is SC7 going
to be released?

Here's a feature that would be cool for me.
Support the ability to assign a score to a file format or somehow
weight it so that I can state a preference. In other words if I have a
track in both FLAC and MP3 formats it'd be really cool if I had a way to
say only show/play the FLAC version.
