My 0,02$ just drop the whole onboard server capacity and accept that. Touch is a network player for a proper LMS server . The hardware will never show the best side of the server , no plugins no web-UI no transcoding .
And yes it has to be a server . The player is the same as always , the diference is that now the server runs locally on the player . You do apriciate how much heavy lifting the server does in background . This is partly historical the orignL players before touch cant show a line of text in ui without the server they where just an ui and a interface to the server . The squeezeplay devices radio and touch ( and controller ) can do more thngs locally . But i assume they got tempted the. Touch is marginAlly able to run a version of the server if stripped of some funtionality . I would try a very small selection of songs on an ext3 or fat32 formatted stick ... My piont they should have released the Touch as the terrific player it is , this added functionality only adds griefe if Nyone tries to use it creating badwill hence my opinoin to just drop it . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
