No idea if the SBC supports it (I don't have one), but support for
IR-Blaster would be great... only the basic functions (PowerOff,
PowerOn, VolumeUp, VolumeDown). 

Right now I can send the PowerOff and PowerOn commands correctly from
the Now Playing screens (Main and Multiple players) when I press the
Power button. And actually I can send the commands for VolumeUp and
VolumeDown succesfully with the Volume controls (I move the slider to
the left and it starts sending the VolumeDown signal, move it to the
right and the VolumeUp signal kicks in), but the volume UI controls
don't adapt well to the behaviour of IR-Blaster, for two causes:

1) I have a Fixed Volume enabled in my player's settings (set to Max
Volume, because the volume is controlled by the amplifier being managed
by IR-Blaster), so when I move the slide and release it... it returns to
it's original position (to Max volume).

2) Becuase the UI element is a slider, and for IR-Blastet what is
needed is buttons to increment and decrement (VolumeUp and VolumeDown),
but...

If somehow the hard buttons can get implemented, I guess this could be
solved.

Altough I tried the Volume controls in the iPeng Web skin and for some
reason they don't send the VolumeUp and VolumeDown signals to
IR-Blaster like in the main Squeezecenter Web Volume controls.

Implementing this would be perfect since right now I still have to keep
my Amp remote control near me for volume management.
