It's definitely possible as long as the external player makes it possible to write a plugin that pick up these events. SlimServer has a very open interface, so an external application can control it with commands.
I know of one that does exactly this from the MediaMonkey application (I haven't tried it myself though): http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21124 rippingdragon;243502 Wrote: > Failing that, are there any other recommended plugins that would help my > user experience with SqueezeCenter? Besides Moose already mentioned, you might want to take a look at the slimfx skin. The slimfx skin makes the SlimServer web interface look similar to the music selection in iTunes. http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32422 Could you explain a bit more about why you think the SlimServer browse/navigation functions are clunky while winamp's aren't ? Is it just the fact that SlimServer is shown in the browser, or is there something about in which order you select things or how you select things ? -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40339 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
