I can't see (apart from the transport buttons issue) what could be done to make it more of a player than it is.
>From a player point of view, from my experience SS works pretty much identically to SP. In SS if I want to listen to an album, I: - navigate to Music Library - navigate to Albums - scroll down to the album I want - hit Play on the remote (or hit the plus button to add to the current playlist) On SP, I: - navigate to Music Library - navigate to Albums - scroll down to the album I want - hit "Play all" with the mouse or press the right arrow key (or hit the "A" to add to the current playlist) If I want to listen to the radio on SS, I: - navigate to Internet Radio - navigate to the Radio station I want - hit "Play" on the remote If I want to listen to the radio on SP, I: - navigate to Internet Radio - navigate to the Radio station I want - hit "Play" with the mouse or press the right arrow key I'm not trying to be awkward, I just don't see where the fundamental differences are ? For most of the navigation even the keystrokes are the same. Or is it selecting SP as a player at the beginning of the process that makes it different ? -- andynormancx Yes, it will. Yes, all of them. Yes, SoftSqueeze as well. What ?
