I've just uploaded version 0.40.0. Main updates:

1- When streaming to multiple SB players, I was having a lot of
shuttering and rebuffering. I finally got that sorted out, it was due to
a wrong buffer value set for LMS. The exact buffer value is now
user-settable

2- It's now possible to AirPlay to "virtual" players created by my
Bridge plugin (UPnP and Chromecast) which means you can AirPlay to any
CC or UPnP/Device. Note that due to limitation of CC/UPnP protocols,
when streaming to such players, the track duration is NOT set not will
be metadata information updated. Think about the AirPlay source as a
live stream like Radio Paradise. In such case, only UPnP players
supporting icy-metadata protocol can have some of the track infor
updated

3- User can select which SB player can be made available as AirPlay
device

4- Squeezelite < 1.6 can be AirPlay device (need to enable the "Allow
all squeezelite-based" players" in settings

5- A debug system has been added to the binary helper so I can help

6- Add a Setting pages to adjust all these parameters

As a consequence, some asked for that, you can now stream to a LMS sync
group that include device created to my AirPlay Bridge. It sounds a bit
sunny at first glance, but that's a way to have AirPlay and SB players
synchronized and controlled by iTunes/iPhone/iPad

I've made tests under Windows, not under Linux/OSX. It should work the
same, but help would be very appreciated
