I recently bought a never opened Griffen Radio Shark so that my Slimserver host could stream local FM to my Squeezeboxes, including my kitchen setup that's just a Squeezebox, a bookshelf speaker, and a small amp hidden behind the speaker. I haven't gotten around to writing a plugin for changing the station because I usually listen to the same local station (whose 32k public internet stream is worse than "questionable" quality; it's sooo much better listening at 160k). It sounds like control is your biggest problem -- have you looked into good universal remotes (the MX-500 looks quite good, but I've already invested time in some far cheaper One-For-All remotes) and Felix Mueller's IR Blaster plugin? http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?IRBlaster Depending on the codes available on the SoundScape (especially discrete "on" and "off" codes), you may be able to get alarm clock functionality with the free IR Blaster plugin and a $7 infrared transmitter cable. -Peter -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim BlankSaver BottleRocket FuzzyTime SaverSwitcher SleepFade StatusFirst VolumeLock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35685 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
