Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)

Hi folks. Ts been a while. I think I brought this issue up some time a back. Don't know if there've been anything done in that area. I think I mentioned that I use the buffers of squeezelite as full-track RAM buffers. Something like "-b 1:40" would allocate a huge 400MB output buffer.

To me it's still a bug. If you call it design flaw or weakness or compromise - that doesn't matter to me. If "next" is the not "next" after the track being played back at that very moment, it's IMO a bug. Even with gapless "next" should be "next". I guess very "short ones" are an exemption.

DJanGo, I can follow your thoughts. I have enough different displays (according to my girlfriend that is :rolleyes:), but I like something about the simplicity of a small display. Maybe it would be easier to emulate a 16*2 LCD display on a 'modern' TFT screen
