Ah, so "Web Remote" is the working name for the web UI, and you'll copy stuff into the native control panel as it makes sense. OK. I still wonder about Dean's comment about Internet Radio. I can understand managing paid services like Rhapsody through a unified (i.e., hosted on mysqueezebox.com) web UI, but not simple public stream URLs. A request for the control panel: on Windows, please stick to the "old" XP style. Some of the control panels in Vista/Server 2008 have gone crazy, like Microsoft knows it needs to give you 50 options but refuses to show more than 3 at a time. So getting stuff done (and, often, even finding where to do stuff) is a hassle in Windows OSes after XP/2003. Please don't emulate that. I haven't used Mac OS much since 10.3, so I don't have any comments there that even I find useful. Linux users seem more likely to hit the web UI (even if you get the wx stuff working, you have to figure out different distros' ways of configuring what goes in the normal menu hierarchies, right?), but I think the stuff I suggested in bug #9702 would help new Linux users who hit the Web Remote view. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim AllQuiet BlankSaver ContextMenu FuzzyTime KidsPlay 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=64224 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
