I've started playing with AirFoil. It rocks. It lets you pipe an application's audio through AirPlay. This also lets you select your audio source, giving a way to make iTunes use a different audio output. I want to ditch iTunes for music playing of course, and if possible would like to use the Music Player Daemon (MPD). This would give a far more blind-friendly interface. VLC seems too buggy.
Anyways, I wrote them to ask how to get MPD going through AirFoil. They wrote back and said to option-click on the audio source button, then I could select eh MPD process directly. I can't seem to get the hang of it though. Firstly this button has a rather non-standard behavior - the standard activation commands don't work, and you have to hit space or bring up a shortcut menu. Doing a simulated mouse click with Vo-shift-space also works. I tried routing the mouse cursor, turning off trackpad commander, then trying an option-click, but to no avail. Can anyone suggest how to bring up this alternate menu? Thanks, and if you love AirPlay then try AirFoil. It has a few little things about it so ask if you need help. - Austin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
