Yup, that's what I did in the end, I felt sure I was missing something,
but alas no. 

I went for the Harmony One BECAUSE it was by Logitech, my assumption
being that although its a lot more expensive than the other one I was
looking at, it should be no problem with compatibility with my
squeezeboxes and it should be easy peasy to get them to talk to each
other. Hah, more fool me, you live and learn.

Shouldn't ALL logitech products with an IR control be automatically
added to the Logitech Harmony One software application, first,
automatically, by process, before any other manufacturers get added?
When you consider the pricepoint of these products, and how long they
have been in the offing, surely that's not asking much?

...and why would I choose "Digital Music Server"? The SB Radio is not a
Digital Music Server at all, and the Touch is only that if you want to
make it so (which I don't). I knew I didnt want to control my actual
Digital Music Server, which is in a cupboard and has no IR anyway, so
that's just confusing. Its like calling something Toaster when you mean
Fridge.

Just seems it would be better if one group of Logitech would email the
other group of Logitech, a simple config file for each Squeezebox
product, (or just one as the OP seems to indicate it would work for
all) to add into the software directly, instead of relying on people
counter-intuitively installing a 'Digital Music Server' device, calling
it an SB3 and then going back in and renaming it and reprogramming half
the buttons.

That simple solution would have prevented me from chasing my tail for
an hour looking for a logitech product in a Logitech piece of software
which *should* be there, but wasn't. Now I'm not convinced its
installed properly, as I don't get access to some of the other fancy
features described in this thread, which I have read from start to
finish looking for a solution to this. Pfff.

Anyway, thanks for the clarification,

Cheers
Jim
