I'll take a look at using OtherPlayers on the Radio as well. However, there's something strange with how the Radio works in this regard. If, as I described in my previous post, I choose a Classic player under "Choose player" on the Radio, and then hit the hardware power button on the Radio, two things happen:
1. The display on the Radio goes into the "Off" screen, and the Classic player shuts off. This means that I cannot turn off the Classic, and then regain control of the Radio. Hitting the power button again turns on the Classic again, and the display on the Radio lights up again, at which point I can choose to control the Radio again. But, I repeat: I cannot turn off the Classic using this method and then go back to controlling the Radio. 2. The Radio keeps on playing, but only for a while! It keeps on playing for perhaps 30 seconds. I imagine it empties its buffer, but then it goes silent. However, the server seems to think that something is still playing, because when I turn off the Classic using the above method, the Classic shuts off, and the Radio keeps playing for 30s before going silent. If I then wait a couple of minutes before turning on the Classic again (through the Radio), both players resume playing, but not where they stopped playing, but some minutes further on (or in the next song in the playlist). In other words, the server is not aware that no player has been playing music while they were both silent. Both issues above seem like bugs to me: number 1 a problem with usability, and number 2 as clearly weird behavior. Do other people see the same thing? -- strindberg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ strindberg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11265 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76915 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
