SqueezeCenter doesn't need any more tricky overloaded button functions. The default should be to offer this, clearly labeled, in the usual settings locations in the normal UIs.

But please don't make the remote control behavior more complex! -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim AllQuiet BlankSaver ContextMenu FuzzyTime KitchenTimer PlayLog PowerCenter/BottleRocket SaverSwitcher SettingsManager SleepFade StatusFirst SyncOptions VolumeLock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55135 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
