Hey Robb

Sorry about the delay, I could not connect to forums.slimdevices for
about an hour or so.

As I said in my earlier post I have always thought -z was not necessary,
and to be avaoided.

I have no recollection of where or when this seed was planted :confused:

When I first used Squeezelite I found Gerrelt's scripts and have used
them always.

I always recommend them.

But I hardly read the information, because many years ago I made a spoof
sheet and operate from that.

Your query promted me to read through Gerrelt's blog and I found this

and sure enough

The bugger is already there :)

Now; when I first used these scripts I did not understand any of the
nomentclature, but "I'm younger than that now" and understand a little.

I just don't join the words up with a bit of thinking.

So, relax, wrap up, and keep warm, stay safe and zed away if you want to
:p:):cool:
