I just ordered my first squeezebox and have been playing around with softsqueeze to see what can be done. I have a media center extender and also want to be able to control the squeezebox from the extender. Option 3 below seems to work using the MCE browser, and the handheld skin (point to http://x.x.x.x:9000/handheld/). The default skin didn't seem to work in the MCE browser. The MCE browser if pretty bad though, so a MCE plugin would probably be better.
