An option that I use is to run Squeezeslave on my SBS server and connect the soundcard output to an FM transmitter. All you need in the garden is a plain FM radio. The sound quality isn't as good as with wi-fi but that doesn't matter too much in the garden and I find I get a very good range. -- indifference_engine 1xRadio, 2xReceiver, 2xController, 1xSB3, 2xSqueezeSlave, SBS 7.5.3 Inventor of SqueezeIR applet for the Controller ------------------------------------------------------------------------ indifference_engine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87094 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
