Thanks! I'm not sure if this is the same software but I installed from http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Squeezebox_Server I installed it on my laptop and tested it on a radio app on Android by going to http://localhost:9000/stream.mp3 and I can change the stations in the media server web controller. Then I noticed there is a CLI tool to execute commands! So now I know how to play a url via telnet. Code: -------------------- telnet localhost 9090 192.168.0.72 playlist play http%3A%2F%2Fopml.radiotime.com%2FTune.ashx%3Fid%3Ds107410%26partnerId%3D16 -------------------- And the radio station is automatically changed in the Android radio app. This is great stuff! My mother 85 years old and cannot work with devices like iphones, ipads or desktops. I am thinking of the following interface. I can run the media server on a linux server that can run 24/7. Then I will use an Arduino with wifi and a keypad and some leds. Print a list of stations on paper and then shen only needs to press the station number and submit key. Maybe overkill, but I want the control for her to be as simple as possible with less buttons as possible. keypad: https://encrypted-tbn3.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRMPqmvXj-fLZi1_n-UH-WWweHFg4dBktiO_MgC8orlv26bD-FJ_Q leds: http://paulware.comeze.com/Images/7Segment16Pin.jpg William -- wfoster ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wfoster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=54872 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94111 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
