Re: [slim] hacking the Rio Receiver to run Slimserver

2008-04-15 Thread dearing

Plympton, are you saying that syncing multiple slimrio Receivers works
ok?  I've tried syncing between the slimrio Receiver and my Squeezebox
3 with poor results, but was wondering about syncing multiple slimrio
receivers to each other?
Thanks

Thanks for the link. I've got a couple of old Rios siting in a closet.
Great opportunity to add music to new locations in the house.

It works pretty well, too - there's a delay of a few seconds while the
MP3 decoder queues up, and there are skips/dead air if you try to sync
with real SqueezeBox 3, but if you have 5 Rio's laying around the house
with nothing to do :-)

Also, since the Rio has a built-in amplifier, you can put them out in
the hinterlands (like the garage) without much additional gear
required!

Try googling medianet or XPLrionet. That is the closest thing that
comes to it for the rio and slimp3. I used that until I bought a
squeezebox a few years ago.

Cool, and you even get control buttons on the front. Something the 
SliMP3 never had... ;)
