RE: Is Logitech Media Server still required for using a Squeezebox touch?

"...from two days ago..."

You talk about automatic generated nightly builds.
It doesn't necessarily mean that anything changed from the day/month/year before. ;)

However.

I'd rather say, they keep the server alive. I'd call it maintenance mode.
There's actually not much to do. The server runs rock-stable since years.
Stuff like Tidal-Plugin, DSD/DoP support and more still get introduced as
community efforts.
There's IMO not much missing.

The problem is with devices like SB Touch or NAS systems, which do not receive updates of the server software anymore.
On these devices a pretty outdated LMS might not be the bleeding edge package.


That's why I always recommend to install LMS on a PC. And make that PC
a server. This way you're in charge and in the position to keep the package up2date.



Enjoy.
