    Hi folks

    while people say what DOESN'T work in this build is quite common but for me I've got the opposite !!! something WORKS which wasn't working before for ages except in an old VM (W7).

    first time I've got this working again since Win 7 without having to use a VM (and it even plays old .ogg files -- I usually use .flac)

    It's brilliant since I have 2 of those old Logitech squeezebox things which have optical output to play into decent hi-fi gear.

    Very happy -- can't believe a new skippy build has enabled me to "recommission" some old but great hardware !!) --it's not all bad at Ms.

    No problem you might say with Kodi / VLC -- OK but how do you get that wirelessly (without even thinking about blu tooth) into an older remote high quality hi-fi amp !! --no prob to Amazon TV stick or phone). Don't even think of mentioning Blu tooth and high quality hi-fi classical music in the same sentence --blue tooth fine for certain scenarios but I'm talking here high quality uncompressed music played into top range amps with studio reference quality speakers -- about a zillion miles from poorly compressed .mp3 with bud phones.

    Hi there

    when you connect again I think this is fine as it shows what's currently playing

    Note also there's an app on Samsung that acts as a controller as well that works almost in the same way with same screens. That does actually have the "what's playing" thing on the screen (as does the old official handset that came with the squeezebox receiver).

    Mobile phone app is also quite good for controlling the system as well - however it's easier to do it from the computer. The server (Logitech media server / squeezebox server) is still maintained and there are nightly builds on this link --still maintained. I run my server on Linux but there are windows builds as well on the link. Still maintained nightly and regularly updated.

    As I use Macrium viBoot to mount my images, I have no issues. Works perfectly
    This is great if Hyper V is enabled but I use Virtual Box which will not run with Hyper V. So to use viBoot I would have to enable Hyper V and then reboot. Then disable it again when I want to use Virtual Box. Not as easy as selecting Mount in the context menu which Reflect provides.

    You can create a simple second boot entry that runs OS without hypervisor running, then you can easily alternate between virtualbox or HyperV mode

    Thank you for the suggestion but it still requires a reboot to change.

    There are ways to dual boot with Hyper-V enabled or disabled for VirtualBox. You may want to look into Then again maybe not. It's a kludge.
