IMHO this is would be a _great_ opportunity for a plugin developer. If it's well done, it can eventually end up in the main distribution, as so many plugins did (RandomMix, SongScanner, new Favorites, old ShoutcastBrowser...). We have to prioritize resources. As much as we like the idea of that feature, I'm sorry it's not high enough on our schedule (most of us developers probably have more players to manage than the paying client ;-)). We would _love_ to see this happen. > work.

If you provide that very cool plugin to our community, then you can be sure to get all the information needed to keep it up to date with new products before they hit the stores. Eg. kdf and triode have been part of the core development for years. And I knew about Transporter and its two displays in time to get MusicInfoSCR working on it weeks before they were shipped. And as you know there has been a long beta period for the Controller, too. -- Michael _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
