[02:39] Yeah, I almost sold it. Maybe should have. [02:47] Nah, they're still pretty cool and still under active development [06:46] wait, what is under active dev? === dzho_ is now known as dzho === dzho is now known as dzho_ === dzho_ is now known as dzho [14:07] LMS, presumably. [14:28] Including the firmware [14:28] there's a patch for allowing the hardwre to understand LMS 8.0.x [14:28] And yes, Michael Herger is still working on it [14:29] Naturally it's on a forum: https://forums.slimdevices.com/ [14:46] ugh, forums are the worst. [14:47] I've realized recently that having a forum, probably discorse, is like a tick box for opensource/opencore companies, and they are completely ignored by the project. It becomes a dumping ground of unanswered questions. [14:48] hey... just like the old ubuntu forums :) at least askubuntu is nice. [14:50] Well, Logitech no longer supports the Squeezebox [14:51] so it's the one developer and anyone that circles his orbit [18:51] greg-g: I really want to help you get your LMS system up and running because it's absolute bliss when it works. [18:54] yeah, I loved it when I just had LMS running on the synology with the squeezebox touch hooked up a basic shelf stereo. [18:55] cmaloney: but now that the synology aspect seems troubling, and I don't want to spend much money redoing everything... [18:59] Do you have a machine you can keep running instead? [18:59] Even something like a NUC or a desktop should suffice [19:00] I don't really, considered getting a nuc, but got a personal laptop instead [19:00] we're pretty modern in that respect [19:00] laptops + tablets [19:00] https://globalnerdy.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/mommy_why_is_there_a_server_in_the_house.jpg [19:01] :) [19:01] At the very least you could get some additional disk space for it rather than keeping it all on the Synology [19:02] I have a hosted nextcloud I use for offsite + laptop syncing, but I've found all of the subsonic compatible players suck [19:03] (hetzner storage share, good price for what it gives you) [19:03] Yeah, I can imagine [19:04] https://community.synology.com/enu/forum/1/post/141628 [19:04] I think that way lies madness [19:04] yup, came across that thread last night [19:05] Refurb PCs can be had pretty cheaply [19:05] yeah yeah [19:06] now it just became a bigger time sink though :/ [19:06] oh well [19:06] i promise it's worth the trouble. [19:06] and you're not alone. I'll help you through it [19:07] SONOS won't even help you with the personal white-glove approach [19:07] wait, that came otu weird. [19:07] :) [20:42] if only rpi had a decent DAC [20:43] referb PCs draw a lot of power to leave running 24/7 too though, and you probably don't want to turn it off and on, wait for it to boot just to use it. [20:43] why not BT speakers? :) [20:54] Why not just wind up the gramophone [21:14] Records are such a worthwhile upgrade tho. Expand your vinyl collection! [22:08] Bluetooth speakers might be the solution in some way. If I could just figure out a good phone app for my music. [22:11] navidrome server + play:sub (on ios) is great.
