The following is a list of devices that can operate exactly like a Squeezebox that have screens S/H SB Touch S/H SB Radio S/H SB3 Raspbery Pi with official Raspberry Touchscreen Android Tablet - Squeezeplayer + any one of the control apps iPad or iPhone - with iPeng O2 Joggler - flashed with SqueezeOS The following will output to a TV / Monitor Raspberry Pi Google Chromecast - with Phillipe's plugin Apple TV - with Phillipe's plugin The following are just audio S/H SB Duet Raspberry Pi Google Chromecast Audio AirPlay Speaker All of the above work. I have tested them. Then there are a number of Android radio type devices where it should be possible to install squeezeplayer and a control app *Pi3 with piCoreplayer music on QNAP TS419p via NFS* iThingys/iPeng/Tablets/Jogglers *Living Room* - Joggler & SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 - > Celestion Ditton F20s *Office* - Pi -> Sony TA FE320 -> Celestion F10s / Pi & SB3 -> Onkyo CRN 755 -> Wharfedale Modus Cubes *Dining Room* -> SB Boom *Kitchen* -> UE Radio (upgraded to SB Radio) *Bedroom (Bedside)* - SB Touch -> Topping TP21 -> AKG Headphones ------------------------------------------------------------------------ d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107740 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
