It runs fine on the FireTV, someone has tried it already. SB Player is actually already on the Amazon App Store for 3rd gen Kindles and the Fire phone and I'm in the process of the getting it approved for the FireTV. So far Amazon has been stupidly picky about very minor issues for the FireTV approval process. I've fixed the UI issues they've complained about, but the latest complaint has been that it couldn't connect to MySqueezebox.com. SB Player has a permanent "MySqueezebox.com" entry in the saved server list, so I guess they think that it is primary feature. I've been trying to tell them that MySqueezebox.com is a site that may sometimes be reachable for a variety of reasons and that it is only an optional feature, but the testers just can't seem to grasp that concept. -------------- Squeezebox apps for webOS, Android and Windows Phone, http://www.angrygoatapps.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wt0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18760 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98049 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
