That sounds like a cool plugin idea ? You can already use the server for proxying , so next logical step would be a " time shift " plugin that with a player option turns pause to a real pause with user setable buffer size 1min 15min 2hours or whatnot and some further option to record and store a pre-selectable time of the now playing or a favorite for later listening . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98256 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
