copyright has nothing to do with it imo, b/c 1.its up to the user to follow the law, and 2.i consider recordings made for oneself to be fair use, like a vcr or tivo. but really that is a discussion for another thread.
i also don't consider such a specific music oriented task to be a OS task. i consider it a task of a music app, and thus why i think a plugin for SS would be best. as to the OS questions you pose, i don't know. like most people, i use windows. i don't program, but if i did and were to design a plugin to allow unattended scheduled recording using the source code of streamripper, i would go on the assumption that the user would have all privs necessary to install and use the plugin, and leave it up to them to configure their system as necessary. are you saying btw, that such a plugin *must* have an interface via remote? i'm asking b/c i don't know, i could see where such a stipulation would be a big disincentive. -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 w/SS 6.5.1 (beta!?) - Win XP Pro SP2 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29958 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
