Old thread but new idea. As I am now leaving my house and saying goodbye
to my beautiful Squeezebox music, it just hit me!
We could use a mobile Squeezebox application to use in the car. We'd
never have to leave the Squeezebox experience behind.
What do you think?
I know that Apple limits the rate at which you can stream, but I would
vote for a pseudo-stream option where I either load up my iPhone ahead
of time (a la iTunes) or let it buffer for a while to accomplish the
same result. Then be able to output at something like VBR 0. I got a

Aren't people already doing that with the iPhones and the
iPeng-as-player add-on? And maybe with comparable hardware/software for
Android devices?

cool if it will work in my car. Thanks.
this might help.
It works with iPeng and you can also set a higher limit for the bitrate
(there's a Bitrate limiting menu in the player settings for iPeng
playback.
It's bending Apple's rules a bit (by default it's set to the 128kbps
limit for 3G) but so far they didn't complain.
Caching would be nice and it's

Yes, this is easily done on Andriod devices too with SqueezePlayer and

Their line seems rather stagnant. For that reason alone Sonos is off the
table for me. If they ever update their player with hi-rez

I have very little hirez, but the Sonos deal killer for me is the
