I noticed a few posts from people using the Salton ePods (which runs WinCE 2.12) with their SqueezeBox devices. I am hoping to do the same, and am seeking advice from those who have tried this before me as to how well it works.
I do not yet own a Squeezebox, but I do own a couple of epods which I've hacked to add wireless capability; I've installed SlimServer on my computer, and have used my epods to navigate the SlimServer menus via the epods web browser. So I know that much works. My goal is to have a SqueezeBox and an epods in (at least) two rooms in my house. The epods in a given room will be used to control the SqueezeBox in that room. My hope is that the users (especially my wife and kids) will never have to touch the SqueezeBox, instead using the epods to select the music they wish to play via the SlimServer menus. My CD collection is fairly extensive (1,200 CDs). My questions are: 1. Can someone verify that this setup actually works (I don't yet have the Squeezebox to test)? 2. How is the performance of the epods browser for this application, when it comes to browsing through large lists of albums and artists? 3. Is there any way to cache the album list on the epods, to improve browser performance? 4. Any others words of wisdom to offer? Thanks! -- Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2848 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19202 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
