It also works for playback - You need to select Settings -> Advanced ->
Audio Playback -> Enable Playback

In theory it should have all the libraries that it needs. YMMV though.
No harm in trying :D

I love them. Ok they aren't massively powerful but they can cope with
my mp3's. I took one of them and put it in a rack case with a built in
IR emitter - the idea was to put them all in a rack and control them
discretely - never got round to that :( . I still have all 5 of mine
out and in service. The display for slimrio is pretty useless but with
somehting like the SB Controller or the Joggler in control that doesn't
matter. Sync with them is terrible and they hate homeplugs (because the
networking chip in the rio is buggy and doesn't negotiate properly).
