Most of these things don't have to be iPeng specific. I raise them with
the understanding, that any other controller can use them as well.
iPeng was the first, so it has some rights now to specify new
protocols.

Will do tomorrow.

This is just great to hear. I will test tomorrow.

Actually I cannot get two lines on SqueezePlay at the moment. It always
shows just \n in the middle of the string. I'm sure I got two lines in
SP one day, but it looked ugly - it was same font, same size, and two
lines of the same colour and style which barely fitted to the space
they had.

Will test menuIcon...

see here:
http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SBS_SqueezePlay_interface
search for "window_fields".

However the page says it should be:

Code:
--------------------
        help = {
  text = "..."
  }
--------------------


And this didn't work for me (but showed question mark). This worked:

Code:
--------------------
    help = 'text'
--------------------


All under the 'window' entry.

Not sure how it's going to work, but weblink looks not bad. Will test
:)
