Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Some Basic advice on which branch of LMS to be on
1. In PiCore I see the Select Branch options of Release; Stable and Development. Is it as simple as selecting the branch and then "update LMS"? Yes 2. I assume Release is 8.2.0, Stable is 8.2.1 Development 8.3.0 Yes 3. Can I move freely between these branches or is there no going back without a new install from scratch. eg. If I went to Stable I would be prevented from returning to Release, or if I went for the development branch no return to stable or release. At the moment ... Yes you can move between them - but that is not guaranteed for the future 4. Given my low level of knowledge ( pretty much non existent on Linux) am I just asking for trouble in moving at all do you think. No - but Stable is good unless there are specific new features that you are expecting to see in Development.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Some Basic advice on which branch of LMS to be on
Some very basic things I hope some patient person will clear up for me. I used to run LMS on Windows and was on the nightly branch, mainly out of curiosity so would be quite comfortable updating LMS to the latest version very frequently. It did go wrong a few times but I was able to sort it out even if it meant starting everything from scratch as a last resort. I'm now on Picore with the default set up and it's working great - Thank you. I've had a couple of plugin updates but I might be brave enough to be a bit more adventurous. Current info Logitech Media Server Version: 8.2.0 - 1627922070 @ Tue Aug 3 11:43:18 CEST 2021 Hostname: pCP Server IP Address: 192.168.1.194 Server HTTP Port Number: 9000 Operating system: piCore - EN - utf8 Platform Architecture: armv7l-linux Perl Version: 5.32.1 - arm-linux-gnueabihf-thread-multi-64int Audio::Scan: 1.05 IO::Socket::SSL: 2.071 Database Version: DBD::SQLite 1.58 (sqlite 3.22.0) Total Players Recognized: 4 So my concerns are about switching branches. 1. In PiCore I see the Select Branch options of Release; Stable and Development. Is it as simple as selecting the branch and then "update LMS"? 2. I assume Release is 8.2.0, Stable is 8.2.1 Development 8.3.0 3. Can I move freely between these branches or is there no going back without a new install from scratch. eg. If I went to Stable I would be prevented from returning to Release, or if I went for the development branch no return to stable or release. 4.
