switch to nav could be done with a dial press, and return to volume control from nav on a timeout. > > Well, you can also argue that you should clean up your library. :) > Detecting the "same metadata" is not as easy as you might think, and the > work required for this would probably not benefit very many people.

I suppose I could settle for a suppress flag in the schema and writing my own tools to clean up what shows up, as long as suppress was honored throughout. (i want to continue to allow scans of my library for new or change content, cant change the structure of it or actually eliminate dupes in any fundamental way) > > I've never looked at Airtunes but I would guess this is impossible. > Apple almost certainly has locked this down so third parties can't > interface with Airports.

There have been a few, but they have disappeared. http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?AirTunes In any case, barring this directly, the ability to provide a server-local audio-input device as an output stream would be better than nothing. Then i could just hook the airport express up next to the server and it would appear to function the same way without any licensing/crypto concerns. Such a function could be useful for other cases as well, such as playing audio from a weather radio or other device with an audio output near the server. -- chroma ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chroma's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22010 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67747 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
