Naw, newbie, I'm not. Been using, building and fixing computers since the early 80s, in fact. But getting network shares working in Linux has always been a PITA for me, lol. I think it ended up being a combination of questionable NAS user/passwd and the smb security level, all good now. LMS was never the problem and it's looking pretty cool as a possible Roon replacement.

@Achim1811 My new Denon feet arrived this evening, yay! They make the old girl look quite fetching, indeed.
@Brown Sound
All for the sound, forget the optics
Btw....my Denon is RIP. Not a single wire but the whole control board is down. Difficult and quite expensive to get and therefore only decoration yet. A simple and new Thorens fully automatic took over. You know, the tremor

Oh wow, sorry to hear that, sir. I'm not sure what I would do if my Denon died!? I would probably get a Fluance RT-85, I guess.@Brown Sound

You will do what you have to do. As always I bet. The stuff did its job, but like cars and other goods at a certain time it makes no sense to spend time, nerves and money any longer. In general everything here is a little downsized, too much overkill...but thats another theme.
The Thorens is a no-brainer. Engineered and manufactured in Germany. The automatic works perfectly silent and smooth. Gave it an AT VM95ML and my old battle horse MuFi MX-VNYL as partners and it sounds already tremendous good. By the way...the ontologist this week told me I am trapped at 11 kHz. Absolut ok for my age, but kind of a shock anyway

What!? Huh!? Sorry, I could not help myself. I know a good chunk of my upper frequencies are diminished from my F-16 maintenance days and the machine noise at Sony DADC. Ahhh, the joys of aging and industry .You will do what you have to do. As always I bet.

Nice looking table BTW.
Is that a Joggler operating as a clock?
I think that's a Squeezebox touch, maybe
Too big for a Touch and he is new to LMS. Pretty sure it is a Joggler mk2.I think that's a Squeezebox touch, maybe
He probably doesn’t know that you can convert a Joggler to be an LMS player and/or Now Playing display/controller

Actually, that is RPi4 w/ 7" touchscreen running RoPieeeXL, on top of my WiiM PP and my iFi NEO iDSD v1-PE. Both the RoPieeeXL and the WiiM can and do function as LMS players. @gazza1101

I know there was a guy, in another thread who worked doing a WiiM display on a tablet. I would just happy if the WiiM coders would give landscape mode for the regular now playing screen. I already have a few old tablets, eh?

The RoPieeeXL does great as a display for Roon but that's it, as far as displaying. Everything else is behind the scenes, so to speak. Does LMS, Airplay, UPnP/DLNA, Plex, NAA, Spotify, I think that's it, lol. It used to do Chromecast but it got dropped. Very cool project.
