What about plain Ubuntu server (or Ubuntu desktop with the gui). Ubuntu
seems to have pretty wide hardware support so I guess it is most likely
to work on your old laptop.
Don't know crashplan but Ubuntu is quite popular so if it has something
for Linux it will most likely work on Ubuntu?

Not strictly true. You could add a OS partition on a disk with spare
space and keep the disks as is. The OS can then access existing data
partitions (and the existing os partition). I guess they are likely to
be one of NTFS, FA

It will include LMS 7.8, squeezelite, etc. and will function as a NAS
for other files you want to store there and access from computers on
your local network.

Thanks. I believe the time-limiting problem was the wav file (as bpa

Before heading down this direction you'd need to check whether your
player can actually play a http/flac stream as in your stream.flac. It
is not common form
Here's another idea for a DAC, plus the spin-off benefit of a portable
high-resolution player. It has been collecting rave reviews and likely
to tempt me soon! Currently available for just under £300 in the UK,
plus the cost of memory cards.

Just noticed that 'The Killers' are missing from my artist list when
using the Logitech android app. The albums appear in the album list with
'The Killers' as the artist. Orange Squeeze, Squeezer, the web ui and
all players show all artists. Deleting the app data doesn't help either.

There is no full URL inside the m3u8 playlist but it generates a file
which concatenated with playlist URL - gives an URL that can be played.
But AFAICT it can only be "played once" and then it becomes invalid -
LMS looks at an URL twice (initially to check the format and then
secondly to tell pla

Well I deleted the app cache when I deleted the data and it happens on
two devices. Do you mean a cache on the server?

Um, no, I meant the local App cache. So it's probably not the issue.
