Hi All,
I have been an happy user for LMS for more than an year now, have built a few devices with Raspberry Pi 3 and Zero and squeezelite (some piCorePlayer based, some DietPi based, some with no display, some with LCD display, some with 7'' touch display) and mostly used them with Squeezer. Totally satisfied by the software and also used SqueezePlay on a PC with a cheap DAC+headphone amp. Now kids are turning into teens and along with my wife they wish to use the LMS library from a PC as well and things are getting hairy, not from a technical perspective, but from a user experience point of view: kids find SqueezePlay Interface counterintuitive and would prefer a more Windows 10 style interface (both kids have a convertible laptop with touchscreen), wife might use use it but she also find it awkward on a PC. Have tried Squeezelite-X but with little success: it often hangs or has problems and it is evident that it is a web browser in disguise in many way, so the experience isn't the best on a convertible. Are these the only two options for playing music on a PC from LMS (browing the library and sharing playlists, not just streaming)? Does anybody know of any other client or plugin for well known music players available. I have tried using LMS from Windows Media Player as a DLNA source (with DLNA plugin installed on LMS) but it is very slow and rarely show all the library. Anyone using DLNA players for PC with LMS who is satisfied by the user experience? What player? Thanx for any information you might share.
