They are indeed useful for Windows. I run two squeezeslave copies on my XP system. One for the MB based sound card (Realtek) for speakers and another for my logitech USB headset dongle. I like the USB sound adapter as I don't have to listen to the computer interference in the headphones. Note that some of the command line options have changed in the newer version of squeezeslave. SS no longer prints the devices by default and the --signal/-s option is always used and no longer needs to be specified. The device list includes input devices which are useless at this point, I just ignore them. I've been testing the latest windows version for the last month and will shortly be releasing the new version on sourceforge. C:\Program Files\Squeezeslave>squeezeslave-0.8-25 -L Output devices: 0: Primary Sound Driver 1: Realtek HD Audio output 2: Logitech USB Headset 3: Primary Sound Capture Driver 4: Realtek HD Audio Input 5: Logitech USB Headset Here are the two scripts I use to start both squeezeslaves in my startup menu. Squeezecenter runs on the same system, so I don't specify an IP address at the end of the command line.
