As much as I liked the idea of the media server, I have stopped using it again because the performance was much slower than "importing" the files from a file server. Also, I started getting problems with cover art which I didn't have before. I'll give library server a try when MC 11 alpha turns to beta to see if these problems have been solved.
The thing is that people who prefer silence over a 3000Mhz actively cooled system often have problems that are not visible when you are only working with fast machines. I use my fast machines for decoding and ripping, but prefer an EPIA 600Mhz computer (no noise) when playing back in the living room.
Having said that, MC is by far the best tool out these in the market. Things like smartlists and the allround compatibility with NetRemote and other apps and formats remains outstanding and unique. No other tool comes anywhere near. So, I will not complain but appreciate the support on this forum even if it sometimes means bringing up threads again that haven't provided a solution yet...
