Happy New Year, everyone.
After years of hunkering down with SqueezeCenter 7.3.x, it looks like it's time for me to upgrade, as I'm upgrading the underlying Ubuntu release and getting 7.3 running looks like a bit of a hassle. Stability & low maintenance are my main goals.
My general plan is to install the official .deb for 7.7.5 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, patch as little as needed in LMS, and tweak any must-have plugins that don't work properly right away. I would appreciate any advice (including whether y'all think it'd be better to just clone a branch from github; my current 7.3 setup is a svn checkout, after all).
FWIW, my setup is all SB3s and Booms. (I have a Radio using only Logitech's cloud. My other devices [SB2, Controller, Touch, Receiver] are currently mothballed.) I initially decided to stick with SC 7.3 because I abhorred the "right = play" behavior that was introduced in SBS 7.4 and realized that SC 7.3 did everything I needed.
TIA,
Peter
