Over the weekend I tried both piCorePlayer and Max2Play. Max2Play feels a bit too heavy for my pi2, so I settled on piCorePlayer. It's very lean/mean, and runs LMS quite well. My music collection is about 3k songs, it handled it very well. I have 2 squeezebox (Classic and Touch), all wired, not wireless. A friend of mine asked me to compare the performance of the piCorePlayer (HDMI) vs the original SB (optical). I told him my ears are not as golden. ;) but, while setting it up, I did some quick test. I wasn't expect to hear much difference, HDMI is digital, so is optical. BUT, what I have noticed is the volume on HDMI out via piCorePlayer is a few db higher than optical from SB. Has anyone else noticed this? Another piCorePlayer question. On the LMS, how do I copy a file to the LMS folder, and have it retain its content across reboot? Some of my songs have Chinese tag information. When I was using LMS on my Windows machine, I simply copy arialuni.ttf to the SB Graphics folder, and my SB classic would show Chinese characters correctly. How do I do this with piCorePlayer? I think the FS is read-only and in memory, not sure how to modify the version on the SD... Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wildgoose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23501 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106369 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
