I seem to have a copy of Linkplayer 1 v..1.0.9, but 1.1 was the last one according to the changelog on the site.  Is it avaliable, or was it not released?  Does anyone have it to share?

I am currently starting to experiment with this and Linkplayer2 beta and BM-Link to determine how I might get audio out of my computer.  Just trying to determine how it would behave in a audio-only system, so I can understand how it can be useful, how to organize music, etc.  Seems to be working great with my FLAC library converted to ALAC, gapless is perfect, as it should be.

Is there a trick to getting Linkradio to work?  I have OS X 10.6.8, iTunes 10, and radios in my playlists, and that playlist with the radios appears when I print playlists.  I seem to be able to navigate to it (5th playlist is called N.RADIO, and has 4 stations), but the on screen virtual remote always says load.  When selecting iTunes Radio as a source, it does play everything in that N.RADIO playlist without a problem, but Linkradio never seems to produce sound.  It does seem to see the stations (can browse to 5-1 through 5-4 on the remote).

In Yosemite w/ iTunes 12, LinkRadio doesn't seem to do anything.

Any advice on how to wake up Linkradio would be appreciated.

Generally, Linkplayer users, do you like controlling iTunes or using the built in lite music and radio player?  I am not clear on the upside and downside of each.

Thank you!

I was able to sort this out for myself - finding that I had accidentally obtained BM-Link 1.50.2 instead of 1.50.3, so there was a N.RADIO compatibility problem.  Getting the latest software sorted through things without a problem and I'm off and running.  

I have had an interesting time using these two older pieces of software to serve music and will post more extended thoughts later, but at least it is not anything too difficult.

I would be interest in your review as as you would bring fresh eyes to the usage of the products.

I use BM link most of the time these days.

Not sure what you meant when you said the lite player. Did you mean the mini iTunes player?
