[SlimDevices: Touch] Squeezebox Touch Auto Shut-down and Auto Start-up for the desktop server

2012-10-23 Thread slice235
Would anyone have detailed instructions to set-up the server computer to automatically shut-down after "x minutes" of inactivity by the Touch and also to start-up the server when you turn on the Touch. Running Windows XP - home. Thank you in advance. ---

Nice one cjfreitag, I use a pair of A2's when I'm working out at sea on ships. Very small but they pack a decent punch. They sound really good with my Macbook Air and HRT Music Streamer 2+, even when the big waves start crashing against the ship in stormy weather ;) -

Ok, I went to B&H yesterday to check out the A2 speakers. Fortunately they had a set powered up, and while it was not the ideal listening environment at least I was able to play some ALAC files off my iPhone to get an idea of the sound. Well, I walked out of the store with a pair of speakers and t
