I know that with my Slimserver, I can use the remote control to log the server through my network into various internet radio sites (Shoutcast, Live365, etc) and can even save favorites. But I have to be at the device and using the remote physically to do it.
I also know that I can use the Slimserver on my laptop computer and use the link on the left side of the interface to log into Live365 and surf stations that way. My problem is, when I do that, the wireless radio light on my laptop is blinking like crazy so I assume that the streaming is going from the router to my notebook and then to the slimserver. If I turn off my notebook, the stream stops. So what I wanted to do was get the Slimserver to log into the Squeezenetwork remotely without going through my laptop, so that the music keeps playing even when my computer is later turned off. I can get the Slimserver to log into Squeezenetwork with the link in the left pane and it brings up the Squeezenetwork web page. It brings up my favorites and Pandora access. No problem so far. However, from the Squeezenetwork web page, there is no way to easily access Live365 stations and surf them or search them. I can only access them, or Shoutcast stations, or other internet radio, as far as I can tell, if they are either already a favorite or I know the URL. Is there anyway to remotely surf through my Live365 or Shoutcast choices then get the Slimserver to play the station on Squeezenetwork without being streamed through my laptop? Is there some trick to look up the URL once I've figured out which station I want? Or is there another, better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? Hope this makes sense.
