I have not been tracking this thread. Version 1.2.0 fixed the very slow playback of 192 kHz files on my openelec chromebox. Are you still looking for an openelec tester? I verified with a variety of flac flies, but have not tried mp3s.

Hi,
So far I am using Kodi but it is more a video player than a music player.
I was advised to use XSqueeze on Kodi but before going further I am looking for the features added to Kodi by XSqueeze. Unfortunately I can't find any link.
Could someone give my a link where I could see what is XSqueeze and the features regarding music (mainly metadata to select music) and codecs.
Thanks
Config, video/audio player:
3T HDD <USB> Odroid N2+ / CoreElec <HDMI> Denon AVR-2313 <HDMI> LG TV 55UF860V
<nfs wired> Linksys WRT32X router <USB> 4T HDD

the basic thing you want to research is not really xsqueeze, but the squeezebox eco system and particularly logitechmediaserver. It's a vastly more sophisticated music handling system than kodi, even though it's kind of old now, it is in fact mor sophisticated than pretty much all the other streaming music setups (e.g. Sonos etc)

You would need to set that up on YOUR server, using those (commercial) plugins.
It's not something someone else can do for you, and it's not the default behaviour...

Please, tell me bossanova808, maybe I misunderstand something.
If I use Kodi + XSqueeze, can I customize for classical music the way I wrote in my previous post?
Is it different?

Xsqueeze reads from logitechmediaserver. Try their forums I think.
If I have helped you or increased your knowledge, click the 'thumbs up' button to give thanks :) (People with less than 20 posts won't see the "thumbs up" button.)

I believe custom browse just makes anotehr menu entry and that therefore xsqueeze would pick it up (or if not it would not be hard to add).
I think try and get it working on your local environment the way you like first using LMS and squeezeplayer (a software squeezebox) - and if it's all good, then move on to xsqueeze. If it is simple enough I would look at adding the extra menu or whatever, that's not a big deal I think.
