Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Music streaming, Video Display option with Squeezebox, network storage
Has anyone tried using the apple tv wired into a squeezebox as a standalone music server? Much cheaper than a mini and if you are only making playlists from the squeezebox screen then who needs more? Thinking of ripping my cds storing on Apple tv and outputting via sqeezebox into standalone DAC. Any ideas?

I can't wait to see the posts about the headaches and brain cancer caused by having wi-fi headphones! Such a product will really bring out the aluminum foil hat crowd!

Logitec (and previously SlimDevices) do not comment on future hardware, so any speculation about an 'SB4' is exactly that, speculation. Never heard of wifi headphones, although i do have a stereo BlueTooth head set for my phone that works well, although the range is limited. -- funkstar funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40157 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles

Don't remember where I read or heard it but this spring/summer we'll start seeing WiFi headphones. -- Gene Zalar Gene Zalar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13899 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40157 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles

This would appear to be the way Logitec are taking the display as opposed to having video out. Gene Zalar;241934 Wrote: > 3.

There are loads of NAS boxes that can have Slimserver installed on them now. Some have to be hacked to get them working (Buffalo for example), some have the ability to add custom apps but are not supported by the manufacturer (Thecus N5200 for example) and some have vendor supported modules (Qnap and Infrant). Some NAS boxes are little speed daemons and take 5 drives (N5200) some are painfully slow and are single drive. Have a hunt about in the 3rd Party Hardware forums. You might get more response in other forums. 'Audiophiles' is mainly concerned with achieving the highest possible audio quality... and arguing about said quality ;) -- funkstar funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40157 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Music streaming, Video Display option with Squeezebox, network storage
1. As far as I can tell I cannot stream Internet Radio from iTunes to other rooms in my house. I currently have a couple of 'network' options: a. I have Apple TV but it won't allow me to stream Internet Radio to other rooms (I understand this - I think - but it tics me off for a lot of reasons). Is there a 'hack' for this? b. I also recently purchased a Transporter but I need a Squeezbox to stream to other rooms - right? Is there another obvious option that I have and cannot see with what I have going on? 2. It would be nice to have some kind of video out (HDMI or Component) so I may display the 'Squeezebox' interface on a larger screen in other rooms like I can with Apple TV. I would guess this is in the works for 'SB4', right 3. Are there still complications with network storage and slim devices (in particular, Buffalo)? If so what other options are available that you can recommend as reliable? Thanks, Gene P.S. I am building an audio and video system from scratch. So far on the audio side I am using Apple Aiport Extreme, a Mac Mini and Windows XP, Transporter and Tetra speakers. I have a couple of Denon's that are filling in as I upgrade.
