For a long long time, Softsqueeze was a project not written by Slim Devices at all, but a labor of love by Richard Titmuss. Semi-recently Richard was hired by Slim (though I think by that time they'd been bought by Logitech, but I may be wrong) and sadly (?) Richard seemed to have a lot less time to work on it. So it's been "returned" to the community for the official release. You can grab a copy from http://softsqueeze.sf.net/ Alternatively, there is SqueezePlay, which is similar to what runs on the Controller, Radio and Touch. It's more official and can be downloaded from the nightly builds site: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.4 Tho as the download location hints at, SqueezePlay is still not totally official and may or may not work for you. Personally, I still use SoftSqueeze. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68965 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
