Hi all,

I've recently joined the happy Squeezebox community and must say I'm
quite excited about it. For now I only have two devices, a radio which
is working like a charm and squeezeslave runnning on my linux box which
is working almost fine (but that's another story that will probably
require a separate thread if latest version doesn't fix my problem).

Back to the point, I would like to control my external Amp that
squeezeslave is sending sound to (ie: power it on and change source)
when I do power on/off of the source. I can do that outside the
squeezebox environment with my IR transmitter and lirc (irsend) from
the command-line. So basically, all I'm missing is a field somewhere
where I could say that I want to execute this script automatically (ie:
ampon.sh) when I power-on my squeezeslave and another one for the
shutdown.

I've looked around quiet a bit but didn't find anything existing that
fit my needs.

Two questions here:

1/ Have I missed THE plugin that would do what I'm asking ? (I've found
two plugin that are pretty close: IR Blaster and DenonAvpControl but
they are both not compliant with my setup)

2/ If there isn't anything existing and I need to write something
myself, where should that plugin sit ideally in the picture ? Close to
squeezebox server or close to the player (ie: squeezeslave) ? As of now
I would say "server" but if others with more experience could give their
feedback that would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
JiM.
