It depends on what you're talking about. Do you mean using the built-in Squeezebox server or using a Squeezebox Server running elsewhere? And do you mean the title formats shown on the Touch or on other players? Using the built-in server you can still set different title formats for other players such as the SB3, but you're stuck with the predefined formats and can't create custom formats. The formats have to be set from the players' remote interface since the built-in server has no web interface. The custom title formats have no real use in the Now Playing screens on the Touch itself, as the main NP screens all display track title, artist and album, with no ability to customize it. The 'artwork+text' and 'text only' NP screens look a lot like the Now Playing area in the default web skin, with TITLE, ARTIST and ALBUM displayed on three lines. The most limited are the title formats shown on the Touch when using the built-in server. You get TITLE and nothing else, not even track numbers, when looking at the track list of an album. In the Current Playlist you see TITLE on one line, then ARTIST - ALBUM on a second line and it's not configurable. A couple of things may be customizable if you enable remote logins, then use an SSH client to SSH into the operating system and edit the server preferences file. I expect many people will want to do this and expect it to be pretty painful for anyone attempting to walk them through it. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77137 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
