What if you have all the equipment hidden in cabinets and need to see the display on the Squeezebox. What's the alternative to getting up and opening the cabinet. Is there any kind of "remote display" for those of us with everything built in?

Why would you want to use a TV, seems like a horrible idea to me
persoanlly. This is one of the reasons i like the SB3 so much. I dont
know what all the fuss is about over the Sono's either, i much prefer
to have the screen on the main unit.

I would hate to have to turn on my TV just to be able to see what i was
selecting/playing. Apart from the audiable 'whine' TV's make, i cant
drag my 28" Sony outside into the garden with my SB3/Mini system when i
am having a BBQ/Party.

One thing some people like the idea of is having some visualisations on
the screen. But the SB3 does not have the power for anything decent and
i would not like to see SD divert the effort away from the ultimate
audio playback device. You can use your PC for this well already anyway
- just divert the audio through your PC (you could use softsqueeze) to
active sound responsive visualisation software like AVS then use a TV
cable.

thinking about it, i wonder if someone could build an app that queries
slimserver for album/track/artwork/now playing info which could be
outputted to a TV?
