IMHO it will never be a good universal remote, the main reasons being that it has too few hard buttons and not touch screen. I'm sure the community eventually will bring the necessary functionality for it to control the devices required for audio playback through the SqueezeBox, such as turning on/off the amplifier and selecting correct inputs. But I don't think you should buy this if you are looking for a universal remote which is able to control every device in your living room. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41805 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
