Now this is fantastic news. My main interest in SqueezePlay is to be able to use the same interface on my desktop as I use in the lounge room. I'm not terribly interested in the GUI stuff, though it does look slick. My main interest would be having a headless, standalone playback engine, then use the web interface to control it. I have a couple of preferred requirements though: * Play nice with sound servers (like PulseAudio being used with the next Ubuntu release) so that other apps can still generate sound * Synchronization -- PulseAudio apparently does good latency measurement, so this should be achievable. I've had little success with the other playback engines this way. * Integration with GNOME so that I can use the multimedia keys on my keyboard. I said I wanted to control it via the web, but I find these keys really useful. At the least I want pause/play, but ideally also track skip/rewind. Look forward to seeing and testing this! -- Shermozle ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shermozle's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16935 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46039 _______________________________________________ jive mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/jive
