What did change since it was working?

And what's the exact, verbatim error message you're getting?

Sadly, family members do not tell me about problems when they occur, only weeks later like "... und Napster geht ja auch sowieso gar nicht mehr." It could be some weeks ago after the last community hardware for Squeezebox radio, otherwise I did not change anything. Does it work for others? When i downgraded to firmware 7.94 the Message was „Napster wird auf diesem Player nicht unterstützt. Sie benötigen eine Squeezebox 2 oder höher." After updating again to 8.2, the error is like it used to be with the one of the early version of 8.1.1 - Display shows cover artwork and playing time advances, but there is no sound.

I just tried to switch the Radio back to "mysqeezebox" to see if Napster support will work without lms. But I cannot find the option to switch from local lms-server to mysqueezebox. Has this option been deleted with the costum firmware?

I have not yet managed to get access to the terminal, but I will try.

I installed SSH-Termin (ShellInABox-/Fernbedienung-Plugin for Max2Play), found the RhapsoDydirect-Directory (\usr\share\perl5\Slim\Plugin) and started vi - but when typing "I" to insert # I got the warning "creating read only file". Do you know what I am doing wrong? (Also: As I learned vi 1994 at university, I also might use vi wrong.)

Try „sudo vi ProtocolHandler.pm“.

Thanks, "sudo vi ..." worked. I put # directly before "return" - so it reads "#return". Napster would still not play. Then I tried "# return" - so this fix sadly did not work.

I found the reason: It is the community firmware (maybe the last patch from april). After restoring the original firmware on squeezebox radio, Napster started to work again.

Crazy: After installing the new LMS 8.2.1 nightly Napster playback works again with community firmware (but as it seems not with the original firmware). For now i am happy.
