I will use that now that I know it's there! I currently use pause
instead of stop because I didn't know this! I don't know how
Squeezeslave reacts to being switched off, but I can't imagine it would
be good...

I have only had my Duet for a couple of days, but I have also run into
a few points that might be done easier:

1) Switch between players - I use my controller for the receiver and a
Squeezeslave and switching between them is way to complex.

2) Syncronize - A shortcut to sync/unsync players would be nice. Maybe
an option to create scenarios if you have more than a few players
connected.

To some extend this could be solved by making a customizable "favorite
functions" menu. I suspect people have very different setups and
therefore very different requirements. Instead of making a lot of
hard-to-remember shortcuts you could maybe just have one that brought
up your favorites as a popup, returning to your previous screen once
you're done?

Besides the pure GUI part, I am also missing some basic functions:

1) When players are syncronized, the volume control only affects the
"selected" player, not the syncronized one(s). I would like some kind
of option to change the volume "globally" - maybe pressing a volume
button in sync-mode could bring up a popup to choose between "all
players" and "only selected"?

2) Transfer from on player to another: I sometimes create a playlist
while using the receiver in the kitchen (yes I know, I should make my
wife wash the dishes, but that's too late now...). Then, when I go to
the living room, I would like to transfer the playlist to another
player - I wouldn't mind if it meant starting from the beginning of the
current song.

3) I can't find the current playlist anywhere - only "now playing". Is
that just me or is it missing?
