I should create a ticket for this. I guess my point was that, as far as the Squeezebox is concerned, it IS connected...though to SqueezeNetwork rather than SqueezeCenter at that point. The SqueezeBox is, in fact, a pretty dumb client in this regard. It doesn't "know" that it's connected to SN vs SC. All it knows is that it's being served by something with an ip address.
Ideally, you should be able to do something easy, like a "press & hold" of the power button, to make the SqueezeBox fire off a WOL magic packet no matter if the SB is connected or not. But I'm not sure that even this would be possible. I don't think the SB does any or much "interpretation" of the remote's IR signals. In this case, the power-press+hold would get forwarded to SN by the SB, SN would then have to transmit a command back to the SB telling it to fire off the WOL packet. Perhaps this is doable. Would this work for you? If so, wrap it up in a SN enhancement request. PS: anyone know if power-press+hold is already used in some other context? -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
