Watching this thread with interest.. just about to purchase a wandboard to play with - a very interesting device. Have to agree with Triode's sentiments. Some very interesting ideas being put forward but a roadmap needs to be put in place. I would like to see an initial release support wifi and

Another very interested lurker on this thread (and happy Squeezelite user). Not sure if this is a trivial request, but it would be massively useful to me if there was straighforward support for driving an external amp power relay (similar to the Power Control plugin) and / or IR Blaster plugin su

As ststed earlier in the thread (I know every body hasn't read the whole thing!), I'm leaning on running external control interfaces over USB, it makes the hardware and drivers much simpler. For example IR receivers, IR blasters and Relay boxes all exist with USB interfaces. Many of these come w

[slim] Community SB: expansion infrastructure

2013-02-24 Thread JohnSwenson
In the main thread there has been a fair amount of talk about IR blasters, relays etc. This go me thinking about the subject of software expansion, along the lines of plugins, applets, bolt-ons etc. Now seems like a good time to discuss how this wants to be dealt with in a community project. At
