garyi Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Still waiting patiently for a stick of ram to go into a NUC I have purchased. The plan being a dedicated music server. That is what I would like, something thats sole purpose is the delivery of music to my hifi. I understand that Daphile and Vortexbox run on linux and appear to offer this solution. However is there other options? Anything else out there to consider? I would prefer not to be installing windows as in my experience it demands to much of my time. In a truly ideal world there would be a gorgeous interface on both my ipad but also on a connected screen that could be controlled with a remote. To an extent Plex does this, but its hardly optimised for audio. I also like XBMC but again last time I used it it was no good for hi def of which I have a little bit. Also the pair of these were a nightmare for setting up playlists. A primary concern is to be able to set up play now/last type playlists. I love this feature in 'remote' for itunes. Does daphile/vortexbox offer this. Any hints and tips would be great I am working through this board slowly. I noted another 3 letter acronyms for delivery of music and looked at the wiki, but seemed one for programmers. Link to comment
