Qobuz and other music streaming services work well in SnakeOil LMS - Snoopy8 - 23-Dec-2022

Not sure how many of you are using streaming services like Qobuz, Tidal in SnakeOil, but it works well in LMS.  I have updated the Wiki on how to set up and use streaming services in LMS (Logitech Media Server).

If you are in the midst of trying the various services, LMS will give you a consistent experience.  The user experience of native Apps from the music streaming services vary a lot, some better than others. 

Many of the native Apps use Chromecast, Bluetooth or Airplay, and may be connecting directly to your music gear.  Qobuz via Bluetooth is a distant second (my bottom benchmark!) to using Qobuz on SnakeOil & LMS.

Please note that this is standard LMS functionality. However, SnakeOil has a major influence on the sound quality.
