I've gotten it to work via the following kludge:
- Sirius/XM online account playing on the Sirius/XM app on my iPhone
- LMS Shairtunes (Airplay) plugin
- Select desired player as an Airplay choice on my iPhone
I'm listening right now. It's no as nice as the old Sirius/XM plugin,
but it works.

I don't subscribe to Sirius, but if you have both LMS and the Sirius

install the Wavinput plugin on your computer (that's also running LMS)
and then you can stream the output of the sirius playing on computer to
your Squeezebox. I played around with this years ago to try and play
Wolfgang's Vault
Right. Waveinput is listed under 3rd party plugins in the LMS server
settings. You need to check "Show all 3rd party plugins" to see it.
Once you've added it, it becomes just another input that you can use for
your Squeezebox ecosystem.
By the way, garym, I'm also running my main LMS on a Vortexbox, but I'm
also running another LMS server on my Windows computer, which is where I
have the Waveinput plugin installed.

The only reason I was paying for the online feed of Sirius was to listen
to it apart from my car in my house on my Squeezebox's. I'm a big fan
of the 80s, and having 1st Wave out on the deck in summer was worth the
extra charge.

i'm confused about AAC- i thought SB could decode AAC? there's a
setting in LMS for AAC file types, and mine is set to Native. in any
event, why can't LMS transcode the stream on the fly if AAC is really
not supported?

Depends on who they work for. Of course contract engineering companies

if Sonos can do it, as they are famously slow and feet-dragging at

One very round-about way is to plug said device into the line-in on your
server or run the app on your server. You can then use any number of
methods (I use Nicecast / AudioHijack on a mac myself) to get the audio.
You then have a local stream in a standard format you can point the
squeezebox at.
