I read throughout the posts about syncing, and the poll threads where syncing was discussed, but still don't see an answer to my questions. Perhaps you can clarify. How can more then 2players be synced? When will the master volume control be implemented for the synced players? Btw, your app

I did not find a thread about this great piece of software, therefore I'll open a new one. Finally, we do not need these crappy 3rd party apps anymore (they are too fast and too stable anyway), because the official Logi App is now available on iOS as well. ;-)

Hi Dkone101, I'm still not back yet from my 'break' in programming further on SqueezePad (but I guess this will change very soon). The top priorities for me right now are: - portrait mode - improved handling for synchronizing players - switching of players between MySB.com and local server

Hi MAB, can you check your server log if there are any errors? Typically the flashing box is there, when the server throws an error (then disconnects SqueezePad) and SqueezePad instantly tries to reconnect (but fails again). Did you try to restart your server already? You can get into contact
