RE: SliMP3 Ethernet MP3 Player

["Tony Butler" <ukha_d@xxxxxxx>]

Nope, not done this.  The problem, ISTR, is one of memory - it only
has
a limited amount thereof and having indexed about 30k files, it runs
out
- IIRC.

In practice, this may not be an issue - of your > 30,000 collection,
how
many would you actually listen to?
And/or different rooms may have access to different sets of files - eg,
you would never listen to Eminem in the kiddies bedroom because of the
'slightly' dodgy language.  Black Sabbath may not be required for
the
bedroom etc......

If it's something TB can fix, in my experience, they will - a lot of
features requested in the support group seem to make it to the next
firmware release (provided more than 1 person requests it) or a release
shortly thereafter.....

I don't like having limits on anything personally, but this is one I
feel comfortable with (for now).

Maybe one of the resourceful ppl here who participates in the bulk buy
would like to try hacking the machine to solder in more memory and thus
overcome this limit?????? :]


Tony.
