I am now using ServerPowerControl solely for switching the players over
to mysqueezebox.com. LightsOut 1.0 comes with network load monitoring. I
set the threshold to 8 KB/s (= 64 KBit/s) and set all my players to
proxied streaming, so SPC does not need to issue any not-idle commands
at all. It works like a charm with the added benefit of other network
operations being monitored as well.

If you run your SqueezeboxServer from a WHS which you are using for
other purposes as well, I recommend having a look at LightsOut.
