Peter - I want to start with I love your timer. It has turned my boom into the ultimate companion to brewing. I set timers for each time I need to do something and then just let them roll. I did have an issue last night that I wanted to let you know about though, but I haven't tried to

Jonnio, what version are you running? 7a22 fixed some bugs when manually scrolling through multiple timers. I like the idea of a web interface, too. Hopefully I'll find time to write one... :-) -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim AllQuiet

pre14 is now up. As of pre13, KitchenTimer does not use the SqueezeCenter 7.2 alarm code. This makes it work better, and it should work OK in SqueezeCenter 7.0 and 7.1, too. As of pre14, there's a KitchenTimer screensaver mode. This is most useful in conjunction with SaverSwitcher -- for

Tried it last night with a timer while my SB was silent. Worked great. The only thing to note is that because I have my alarms set to fade in the volume, it made me miss the timer because I couldn't hear the alarm until it was several seconds past. I can't think of anything I'd use it for where

So you want it only to toggle the volume if the client had been silent? No, I'd only want it to toggle the volume when the client had been playing. If it's silent, the music starting would be enough to get your attention. But I think that you understood that and just made a typo above. I
