I've had LMS running on an old XP PC for many years but house renovating
has caused suggestions of something smaller.
What are my best options, I just need to run LMS and offer a network
share of my music drive to other machines.
Thanks

Cheap: A Raspberry Pi with piCorePlayer.
Less cheap: a NAS (Synology, QNAP have decent support for new LMS packages).

Thats why I'm suggesting WinSCP - there is no
Screenshot is WinSCP displaying contents of my cache folder. Clearing
the .db files is as simple as right clicking and selecting delete.
Note in the top of the window is the path to the files. You can find
this from Settings / Information
27779
If I get it right I'd first have to go to the cache directory (which as
you told me can be found in LMS settings/information) using »cd« command
including the string linking to the cache folder. Then I should be in
and could execute »rm *.db« – correct?
That's correct. But as d6jg pointed out
Ok I see, WinSCP actually looks much more common for me than executing
command lines in terminal. Unfortunately I'm on a Mac and can't use
WinSCP. Is there anything comparable for Mac users?

With that sized library I think I would use a Pi3 coupled with a NAS.
Install pCP on the Pi
Thanks for the replies,
My library is currently 460G so if I went with the Pi would I be able to
attach a SSD or would a large USB flash drive be a better option?

Because of a problem with my main LMS server, for the last 4 months I've
run a pi3B+ with attached
Been streaming from my Synology NAS for years. Had the Odroid N2 for
retro gaming purpose - but I was damn free and bored one day.
Installed dietpi on the N2 and run LMS. Had the LMS pointed to my music
library on my existing NAS.
It was 1) fast and 2) sq was so much better when streaming

Thanks for this. I deleted the templates folder. There was no immediate
change, but later on I rebooted the computer. The additional playlist
buttons are now

Haven't used an Odroid, but my rPi3B+ is very snappy with about 111,000
music files. Not noticeably different from LMS running on a Win10 (64)
bit computer with 8
Fwiw I noted that the server log was empty when trackstat hangs my Lms
too. After disabling this one specific plugin I've not had any other
plugins cause this issue, but it used to work ok so I'm a bit baffled as
to why that behaviour has changed.

The only time I've heard of people having performance issues with Pi's
running lms was back in the days of Pi v1 and when using crazy long
playlists. And then it's really about memory consumption I think.
On the other hand I've heard plenty of people complain about the
performance of lms on low
OK so it looks like Pi4's are available in 1,2 or 4G memory configs,
If I bought one of these then I need to put LMS and PiCorePlayer on it
but do I need an OS too? the one I was looking at offers NOOBS on a card
for £8.
I'd just have a play around with storage that I already have until I'm

ok thanks,
So it looks like I'd be better with the Pi3B+ then add a SSD for a tiny
silent server.
I'll think I'll get that passed the boss :-)

This is what I performed at the end of last year:
First:
[ cd /share/*/.qpkg/LogitechMediaServer ]
[ rm -R SlimServer/ ]
[ ./QLogitechMediaServer.sh start ]
[ ./QLogitechMediaServer.sh stop ]
[ rm -r SlimServer/Cache ], [ rm -r SlimServer/prefs ]
Then:
[ cp -RP /share/*/Multimedia/prefs

Yes to sharing if you install Samba which is easy.
Pi4 - couple of points
The version of pCp that works with Pi4 is beta only at

I purchased the 4GB version, but I don't know how much better/quicker it
is over the 2GB version. Something to take into account

I'm not a big use of playlists.

I would say that anything since the rPI v2 is more than adequate for an
infinite sized lms library. The only thing you gain from upgrading
beyond there is the ability to support more resampled/transcoded streams
(if that's your thing) or working with *huge* playlists. And when
working with huge
