RE: Anyone LMS streaming to uRendu ?

"Clunky" !?!?

As with all new systems you need to get to know it. 1000s of people are running this extremely stable platform since years.
A huge number of commercial streaming systems meanwhile make use of it.

It's a complex platform with 100s of options to shape it. And in case of questions the main squeezebox forum is the place to go!!!

75% of your album art? Hmmh.

As long as I have a "folder.jpg" or "cover.jpg" readable for user "squeezeboxserver" in the album folder I hit a 100% coverage.

Of course when shaping my collection (years back) I made sure that
these files got there - if missing.

I also made sure that my tags were consistent.

That work has to be done once.

You IMO can run the nightly build LMS versions.
I'm running these since years. Usually these are IMO more stable (bugfixes/enhancements) then the stable versions.

I also turn off pretty much all plugins.

Make sure you have your filetypes properly set under advanced settings.
By default pretty much all conversions are "on".
You might end up with mp3 conversions on your apple lossless or flacs.
I usually just use PCM as target format. All others formats are disabled.
Of course you can run native if your streamer supports it.
