Is there a way to go back to a previous version of LMS? I am running the current nightly of 7.9.2 (Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.2 - 1567938514 @ Sun Sep 8 12:39:30 WEDT 2019) and I am having the same problem with my Transporter 'freezing' as described in this thread: https://forums.slimdevices.com/showt...er-Not-Playing
I also have another version of LMS installed on another PC on my network (Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.2 - 1559032210 @ Tue May 28 10:38:34 WEDT 2019) and when I start that server my Transporter works perfectly again. Could there simply be an issue with this version of LMS? (And how do I download the older version again?)
Thanks!

Upgrading fimware?
Hi all,
Many years since I last did anything with my system as it used to be rock-solid. Some recent problems mean I have installed LMS onto another server at my home, which services 2 x Squeezebox radios and a Squeezebox Touch.
In order to get the LMS up and running on my Ubuntu-based machine, I had to install "logitechmediaserver_7.9.3~1584993250_amd64.de b". Previously on my original server I was running "squeezeboxserver7.7.5"
My question is whether I should upgrade the firmware on my Radios/Touch? - I never wanted to get into the UE system and want to keep my players very much open source. Can't find any detail on the firmware within the 7.9.x series (I think I read it is still in 7.8.x, but can't find that either).
Cheers
Mr Sums

The firmware has not had an official update for years.
Interesting development right now though is that one member here has been working on making it much easier to update it - and there has even been a patch to help SB Radio detect the LMS 8 beta.
If you switch to UE then you lose your local LMS connection and with that you would lose access to lots of other clever things and future add-ons.Paul Webster

Thanks, but can someone please confirm that the 7.9.x software does not contain the UE firmware? - I know the firmware has not been updated for some time, but remember I am upgrading from 7.5.x
Thanks

It's always been the case that Squeezebox players and Controllers will be told by LMS if a firmware update is needed. In my experience LMS 7.9.x will tell Radio to use the 7.7.3 Squeezebox firmware (Touch and Controller get 7.8.0 firmware). I don't think LMS will ever try to convert an SB Radio to a UE Radio; certainly it's never happened with my Radios.

Bug reports
Is there a specific place (URL?) to report LMS bugs, or do I just do it on the LMS discussion forum?
