a - 2) is needed for Radio/Touch if they can't access spotify using the built in support (for example if you didn't add your password into mysqueezebox.com) b - noflac is needed if there is no flac library which the helper app can use to compress traffic to the player - should be no loss of functionality ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79706 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
