I am a newbie in the squeezebox business so I will type this in a very basic way, hope you bare with me. :)
So my system setup is like this. I have

1. a NAS with the latest squeezebox server running.
2. an 802.11n wifi network
3. an android tablet with a squeezebox controller app installed. I also have a squeeze player app installed so I can play music on the tablet. It works fine.
4. an old but good sound quality stereo. Ok it is not ancient, has RCA connectors etc.

What I want is a thingy plugged into my stereo that can recieve the squeezebox music stream, controlled by a controller app from the Android tablet and deliver it to my stereo (through RCA connectors for example).
The Logitech devices on the market seem to be lagging behind in development (Logitech Touch, Duet, Reciever...) and when I search for those products on internet stores it is very a scarce inventory of those products anyway.
The whole industry seem to be extremely focused on solutions for airplay and all kinds of Apple solutions. I am not interested in supporting Apple, so that is out of the question.
By the way, if there is a thingy that do the trick (it really must exist) it would be very nice if it can use the 802.11n protocol. Running wifi with support for more than n hogs the wifi speed.

Thanks!

The optical out (in this case to a Transporter) is DOA. I've searched the relevant forums and apparently this is not uncommon. I tried all the obvious fixes with no success. Apple is replacing the unit tomorrow. Their Italian support help was courteous but clueless. It occurs to me that my trusty old Transporter may be to blame. Has anyone tried this combination (ATV to Transporter toslink)? Perhaps there is some mis-match that's causing the problems. Any suggestions, beyond the obvious, would be greatly appreciated. ]]> 3rd Party Hardware http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98895-Apple-TV-no-sound-from-optical-out http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98893-PS3-Music-Playlists-and-Logitech-Media-Server&goto=newpost Mon, 03 Jun 2013 10:12:11 GMT Hi, I have configured LMS 7.7.2 on my QNAP TS-209ProII NAS drive.

I have configured LMS 7.7.2 on my QNAP TS-209ProII NAS drive. I have configured it to use uPnP so that I can use my Playstation 3 as the player.

It is working fine on the PS3 as I can see the server OK and I can see the albums and tracks etc. The music is also streamed OK.

The problem I am having is that I can't get Playlists to work. I have set up a small Playlist using Windows Media Player and saved it as an M3U file on the NAS but the PS3 does not see any Playlists.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks
