Guys, unfortunately my SB3 IR remote broke and is not working anymore. I try to order a new one here https://secure.slimdevices.com/products.php?product=Back%252dlit-Infrared-Remote but Logitech will not deliver to Germany. I called Logitech Support in Germany and they did not even know about a replacement option. Any help much appreciated. Where can I get one? WIthout the remote this this is pretty useless. And a Duet Controller is not the right choice for me (WAF).

[slim] Napster Plugin - Login failure
Hi Guys, there is a possible Bug in the Napster plugin. I tried to Login via the Web interface suing the provided user:pass combination from napster.de. It was impossible to login via the web interface. The status message was always wrong user/pass. Using the menu on the SB itself worked fine. I assume that the webinterface did not use user:pass correctly. I assume it used the password also for the username. This can not work. Sorry, I cant reproduce the error here on my system as napster works now.

[slim] Overlaying current track with text to speech
Guys, I enjoy my SB for years now. I have a sort of intelligent house which is able to produce text2speech currently broadcasted over a pair of speaker connected to the machine were squezzecenter is running on. Dont get confused. The current text2speech uses only the same machine and has nothing to do with slim at all. I would like to use my SB setup to broadcast the text2speech in the future. In this regard a question. The text2speech engine I am using is able to produce a MP3 file. Is it possible to interrupt the running title on the SB, play a text2speech MP3 file and than resume/unpause the music to play from the position it was before the text2speech message? A even better solution would be to overlay the music with the text2speech engine like in the car when paula (the voice of my navigation system) says something and the sound volume of the music is a bit reduced. You got it? Any hints?
