I don't use Vortexbox at all, never tried it. 1 thing I do and 1 I'd like to have done:
When I do a server for friends or family, I add a VPN connection. On-demand or all the time, the machine bridges itself to a "maintenance zone" on my network. Going there I can fix the machine and being bridged I can test the fixes with my own players. I guess there is some money to make in exchange for a service like this. I build my VPN capability on openvpn, this code is fantastic. A paper catalog feature (in addition to a web version) would be great for music and videos. With a serious library such a booklet can be IMO a beautiful object (assuming it has art and all), and a book never goes offline. Having had my days of PDF generation I know this is a difficult yet achievable goal. Again, I imagine you can plug this to for-pay print and/or quality metadata service. On paper there is an issue on how to feed a selection to the computer. Barcode scanning/image recognition could be possible when using a remote/handheld/computer that has a camera ? There is an SC plugin -that I have never used- which allows fast selection of a music item by typing a numeric code. -- epoch1970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67336 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
