Been using Windows Media connect 2 to run my Soundbridge for some months now and although stable it is a tad resource hungry so decided to give the new open source firefly media server a go.
It installed in minutes with no configuration other than pointing it at my music library during the install.
It installs as a service that starts very quick at boot up and doesn't require a user logged in to share music unlike many servers.
Main benefit though is that browsing my 40Gb MP3 library on my SB is WAY faster than with WMC2. I used to get delay of a quite few secs on occasions when browsing artists but with Firefly browsing is instant.
Highly recommend this for any Roku users
