Is There a New version of Logitech Media Server?


I noticed a messsage on my music server yesterday indicating a new version of Logitech Media Server was available. Have not had a chance to investigate further yet.

That surprised me in that Logitech no longer produces Squeezebox clients for the server and I had not noticed any updates available for quite a while.

So is this a legit update? Who is supporting the server these days and doing updates? Logitech still?

If anyone knows anything about this, please chime in.

Thanks.

In fairness, I think it should be pointed out that it was a single person who reported problems at AA. Another person there updated without any problems. I don't think there has ever been a software program created that didn't have an issue for someone, somewhere. Note all of the prior versions are still available and it is easy to revert back to an earlier version if you don't get the results you expect.
I have 3 SB's and yesterday they pushed an updated version to my server when I arrived home from travel.

I am unable to tell you if any functionality changed or not, since I haven't fooled with it yet. Don't know if this helps you or not.
