Is anyone doing this? I was using something that one of the HBers made available called THC JukeBox, which is largely a VBScript that uses a SQLite back end for the metadata (album title, genre, track title, etc.) and integrates that with device/property data that HB themes can use to select, display the desired track(s) play lists, etc. Worked great until it didn’t after i migrated HB to a new Win11 box. I honestly haven't dug into the cause of the problem yet. But I am curious as to what others were using, or if they were even using HB to play their MP3s (which may be stored on the network (NAS or other server) drives. Or is everyone now just hollering to/at Alexa?

I holler. Having access anywhere to any music for a small monthly subscription just makes things too easy.

I do too on occasion. I have an Echo Dot as one input to my whole house system. So i just ask HB to open the echo input then holler at Alexa to play whatever on the HB Echo. But I miss not being able to pick and choose tracks from the MP3 NAS collection. Ill get back to the cause of the problem eventually.
