I tried using Tiny LMS with a USB powered drive and it had nothing but problems. While others had success with a toshiba portable drive, it did not work for me. I switched it out with a external powered western digital drive I was using for backups. A sudden performance change!
Instead of the scan taking hours it took minutes. It has severed the Touch and two SB Radios with minimal problems. In a two week period Tiny LMS crashed once while no music was playing and it rebooted by itself. To those trying to use Tiny LMS, take notice of the recommendation to use an external powered USB drive! I think that was more important than perhaps removing embedded artwork, etc from the music files. However, I never tested that to it is just a guess. As for converting an old windows Pentium 4 machine to vortexbox, I have not tried it. The machine has only 258mb of memory and the recommendation is 1GB. I don't think it's worth adding memory to an old machine. If anyone has tried vortexbox with this 256mb of memory and was successfully, please let me know. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Nelson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58158 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98291 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
