You're probably better off focusing on the SqueezePlay code that runs on Touch -- on patching it so that Touch treats those codes differently. With its 100% server/LMS focus, KidsPlay is at a real disadvantage for Touch and Radio. First, those devices will often take some local action that KidsPlay, at best, can reverse. For instance, Radio's preset buttons would turn the device on and then send a command to LMS. Anyone who wanted his Radio to remain in its old power state when a preset button triggered a KidsPlay action was out of luck. Second, since the local behavior can change w/ new firmware releases, it's a hassle to make server-side KP know what it might need to do. Good luck. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ Note: The best way to reach me is email or PM, as I don't spend time on the forums. *Free plugins:* AllQuiet Auto Dim/AutoDisplay BlankSaver ContextMenu DenonSerial FuzzyTime KidsPlay KitchenTimer PlayLog PowerCenter/BottleRocket SaverSwitcher SettingsManager SleepFade StatusFirst SyncOptions VolumeLock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93694 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
