Are there other fundamental issues that makes this problematic ? Is there something that has to be done on the server side to make sure the current server logic doesn't cause problem for the third party applet ? If there is something on the Radio side that causes problem we can easily just create a patch that fixes it. Spontaneously it feels like a local applet handling alarms could be fairly simple and reliable but I might be missing something. Maybe we can make this work ourselves if Logitech doesn't have the resources to prioritize it ? -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/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=77883 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
