Squeezebox Touch, iTunes, and Direct USB HDD
Posted by: OscillateWildly on 10 July 2010
Copy iTunes files from Mac to external USB HDD, then connect the drive directly to a SqueezeBox Touch (SBT):
My understanding is that track information is preserved, but not playlists. Is this correct?
The drive I've chosen to get with the SBT is a portable Toshiba Canvio. Any experience of this range in such a set up? FAT32 will be used.
Anyone using a low price linear power supply, e.g. circa GBP 20 from Maplin, with their SBT? Worthwhile?
I've read about problems re 24/96 FLAC, but it looks like the 7.5.1 firmware update sorted most of the issues.
Thank you for your help,
