Hi Dan Yes dropping into Manual mode keeps the current track playing... once it reaches the end playback stops. If you need it to stop straight away you can get it to fade out. PS 0 5000! makes the rdairplay stop with a 5 milli second fade out.
I get my home station to connect to a remote webstream using a third soundcard and then after a period of several hours resumes normal playback with rdairplay. I can demo it next your passing home.
