In the meantime I did some research by myself and installed the “Get it together” java client.
It connects successfully to the slug and can play the music!
So I am happy to see that I do not need Samba …
BUT:
– every mp3 file is listed twice …
– the sorting order is weired (not usable, if you want to listen to audio books or to classical music ….)
Is this sorting done by the firefly backend or by the frontend client?
(I had the same sorting problem with Twonky ….)
Will the sorting be correct if I use iTunes as a frontend device? (Does iTunes evaluate the files in a different way so that it can produce different … and correct … sorting results … ?)
