[SlimDevices: Plugins] Regular FM Radio

Just wondering. Say if I run SC7.1 on a MCE or OS X machine with a FM Tuner card for regular (non internet streaming) radio, can I 'feed' the radio into Slim and make it available to all the SB3/Duet? -- WSLam WSLam Slim Devices Transporter - TacT RCS2.2XP (Digital Crossover and RCS) + EMM

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Regular FM Radio

Possibly - it depends on the card and whether there is a suitable interface for the OS which enables the card to be tuned and a audio stream to be used by an application. There are solutions for Tuner cards using V4L interface on Linux boxes. It is also possible to use Griffin RadioShark on

The current version of IRblaster (5.4) includes learning as part of the standard download. I'm using the MSR+ as I've got a G68. The remotes use the same device and function codes according to the Meridian web site, just the new remote has more buttons. I use CD for on, and the relevant buttons

I think the windows radio you are thinking of was a DAB tuner called Wavefinder. Also some users with cable/satellite boxes with a web interface have used them to get MP2 streams of their local FM stations. I have a similar but different Radio Shark Linux setup based on a plugin. I've looked

This is a 7.x plugin only - 7.x has some facilities (e.g. asynch HTTP) which made it easy to implement. A simple 6.5 version could lock up SS for 20 secs and nothing would happen - no screen updates, no buffer refill etc. -- bpa
