Minimum (Entry ) Qualifications Needed to Use Minim Server?

[coppinsuk]

Many thanks for your gracious reply to my comments.

It would appear that with now having installed 'MinimServer' that there may no longer be a need for a music player (such as 'MusicBee') on my laptop, as I can now play all my music (contained in 'MinimServer' located in Windows 10) through 'Chromecast Audio' by utilising the "players" in my various "renderers" such as 'Hi-Fi Cast', 'BubbleUPnp' and 'Foobar200' installed in my various tablets and smartphone? Am I correct?

Perhaps the music player (MusicBee on the laptop) will only be needed for sorting and tagging?

Would it be likely that my current music files (302gb on my external hard drive) will only consume about 1,779kb of memory space in 'MinimServer'?

No doubt many more questions will be following, the more I "play" with MinimServer.

Thanks in anticipation.

Cheers,
