    Linkstation Mini LS-WSX1.0TL/R1 and Logitech Media Server

    Hi

    I've just bought a Linkstation Mini as I currently have several logitech squeezebox devices setup and read that this NAS has squeezebox server installed,

    It works OK but the problem is the version installed on the NAS (has latest f/w) is earlier than the logitech media server. What happens is that when I select a library on my PC or my NAS the suqeezebox controllers have to keep downgrading (for NAS libraries) or upgrading (for PC as more recent server installed) the f/w to be compatible.

    Is there anyway to install the latest version of Logitech Media Server on the Linkstation Mini LS-WSX1.0TL/R1 NAS to avoid this?

    Thanks

    Don

    Linkstation Mini LS-WSX1.0TL/R1 and Logitech Media Server

    Logitech Media Server 7.7.1 on a Linkstation LS-VL that worked for me

    Open Stock Firmware

    Note: Not sure whether you need to install Optware or not.

    Closed issues
    IRBlaster for amp control (in my case Pioneer VSX-921)
    Playing AAC (just works)
    Spotify use the non-standard option (standard only work for Touch & Radio)

    Note
    Same approach should work for the following models
    LS-AVL
    LS-CHL-V2
    LS-QVL
    LS-SL
    LS-VL
    LS-WSXL
    LS-WVL
    LS-WXL
    LS-XHL

    I tried on WVL but it did not work, it stucks at the step "Upload SqueezeboxServer and Choose Tar Ball" due to no space left on the device. My WVL is brand new and there's no thing in it, I checked the partitions it used and see that /tmp is stored on /dev/ram1 which is has only 15MB.

    Is there anyway that I could use different folder instead of the /tmp one

    thank you
