Hi really want to use the cav6.6 plugin to be able to control my new
squeezebox duet through the uno's however i also want to use the port
for an it/tcp serial-ethernet device to control the cav6.6 via my
iphone. Is it possible to do both

wizzbizz,
Well, there's good news and bad news. The good news is that you can
share the IP serial port interface between the SqzRuss program and
another program controlling the Russound system with an iPhone. I do
this myself with the Llamapanel iPhone app and the VSPE virtual serial
ports
Cheers someonewho
The Llamapanel iPhone app is what i hope to use as well but I am gutted
about the duet not working. oh well its bought now.
If i bought a squeezebox classic on the cheap would it work? It would
mean having to give over another port on the cav6.6 but as I have 2
free it wouldnt
wizzbizz,
Yes, a Squeezebox classic will work. I'm using an old ver. 2
Squeezebox classic. iPeng is an excellent application. I use only one
Squeezebox, but it should be able to handle switching between two
relatively easy.

My computer(s) are nowhere near my CAV6.6
Is there any other way to connect the computer that is running the VSPE
to the CAV6.6 besides that RS-232 serial cable? Is there some sort of
way to connect via ethernet?
My home is LAN wired down to where the CAV6.6 is located in the
basement closet.
Sully,
Yes, there is a way to do this. I recently learned that there are
IP-to-serial devices that can effectively replace what VSPE does. Two
such products are the Elk IP232 and the Startech NETRS2321E. You
should find these for around $130 to $140. In the SqzRuss.ini file you
just replace
That's a bit steep, though your quick reply is much appreciated.
Do you think -any- ethernet to serial bridge would work? I saw one for
$35 here:

but I don't know anything about these things.--

Sully,
That product looks like a simple cable pin-out adapter. It's possible
you could put one of those at each end of the cat 5 cable to make it
essentially a long serial cable (if the cat5 cable is not too long to
carry the signal). You would *not* connect the cat5 cable to your
network and
I have not implemented as of yet. I have SS working on a LinkStation
and it is not upgradeable. Current release is 6.3.1. So I am
frantically working on getting that to a supported release for your
code. I have a serial run to my HAI system so I may need to split that
to have both connected.
The Virtual Serial Ports Emulator Program (VSPE) lets you have two
programs sharing the physical serial port at the same time. You just
create a Splitter device in addition to the Tcp server device. I use
it in this configuration to have the SqzRuss program and Russound RNet
analyzer running at
Anyone tried this yet? Questions? Problems?
I've posted a new version v02 to the site referenced above.
Improvements in this version include:
a. The program now supports multiple Squeezebox players as sources to
the Russound controller(s). Each player can be controlled
independently.
b.
All,
First, my profuse apologies for not having responded sooner. I
seemed to have had a reasonable amount of free time when I first
worked on this, but work and home commitments have since
intervened. Frankly, I didn't think there would be much interest
in such a program.
The program and
This is a really interesting project. I will mirror it on my site.

I'n going to be installing a a couple of C-Series Russound systems soon,
and plan on having SqueezeBox/SqueezeServer as the main music source.
I've been looking everywhere for a way to integrate Russound and
SqueezeServer. And would be glad to lend a hand in any way I can. I

Just registered to say seriously interested in this. I couldn't help
with programming but would be more than happy to help with testing if
required. I have a couple of CAV6.6's and a Sqeezebox duet.
Do hope that you can make this happen.

I am absolutely interested. I have a dual russound system. Slim is so
awkward to use with Russound. I would very much like this integration.
How can I help?

I'm interested. I was going to do something like this myself.
I'm a developer, but have not worked with LUA (nor have I even heard of
it).
I have a CAM6.6 and 4 UNO-S2 keypads. I also have a PC running

All,
I've written a program that integrates the Squeezebox with Russound's
RNET audio system keypads. Basically, the program does two things.
First, it echoes, in near-real time, whatever is on the Squeezebox
display to the Russound keypad's display. Second, it allows the Russound
keypad's
