And you don’t have to trash your Synology NAS. Keep your music there and mount it as a drive from within piCorePlayer so LMS can use it. As long as both devices are wired there won’t be any issue whatsoever VB2.4[/B] STORAGE *QNAP TS419P (NFS) [B]Living Room* - Joggler & SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 ->

Hey Claus, Good news. I think everything you want has been done. :) I've been running LMS on RPi''s not long after the original RPi was released. We decide to keep piCorePlayer as a single image for both player and server. Just install the LMS extension and turn off squeezelite if you want.

There are a lot of people here and elsewhere using a Raspberry Pi to run LMS - and many using pCP to do it (it is not just a player). Unless you live in a area with lots of power cuts it is probably not worth (in my opinion) worrying much about losing the system on a bad power down event. A

With Synology officially discarding support, I wonder what happens when my DiskStation needs replacement? Could a Raspberry Pi server (not player) loaded with LMS be designed and built? Would it be posible to make something Tiny Core / piCore based, but not a player, maybe name it piCoreServer?

I solved the problem. Here's what I did: _ - disable logitechmediaserver.service and reboot - copy Image-Scale-0.08.tar.gz to //src/slimserver-vendor-7.9.2.arch2/CPAN/ - remove the existing logitechmediaserver-7.9.2.arch2-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz
