@zoleprole - this is exactly what I am doing with two systems I use and others I have built for friends - use the RPI as a LMS server only. It's a relatively cheap investment - pi 3b+ or 4, power supply, sd card - <$50USD. Case if you want.... Of course you can also have the pi be a "player" also, but I still like using my players = touch, radio, boom (and also Philippe's squeezeamp). I setup a friend originally with a touch running "tiny LMS" with his library on a usb jump drive, and while it worked, it crashed and became very limited (no Radio Paradise FLAC, no https which many radio stations and moving toward, etc.). So I just put together a pi for him as a server only, installed it, and said "you owe me $50". :) Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Redrum's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115064 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
