Yes there are analog VU meters, exactly what they will look like and how
they behave is a matter of intense discussion right now, there are a lot
of people that have the same feelings as you.
Another thing to remember is that the SB3 has had years of people
developing plugins for it, at launch

The bad news I'm afraid is
The SB Touch can be controlled by any capable device (eg, computer, PDA,
etc.) on the network, just like any other SB since the original SliMP3.
There could be an iPeng-like app for the Blackberry, but it would
probably have to come from a 3rd party developer (just like iPeng). As a
BB user I
When the Radio and Touch were announced I (naively?) took it for granted
that they would work with the existing software. Like, display the cover
artwork as a background image and run two lines of text on top of it. I
don't think this would be rocket science. I was quite disappointed when
I found
Thanks for the replies. I'm a complete newb to SB devices.
Can the Touch (or Duet) be accessed and controlled wirelessly by a
computer using a browser interface?
I ask because it looks like there is a problem getting SqueezeBoxServer
to function properly on the current version of Ubuntu (9.10,
Yes, there is a web interface element to Squeezeboxserver. You can
access it on any networked browser using

However, you either need to have the software running to make your
hardware player work including for local music, or connect your player

Right. But you can install SqueezePlay on your computer and use that to
control any player. It's essentially a Controller that runs on

SqueezePlay is currently beta software. Moreover, at present there are
no binaries distributed for Linux, so you'll have to compile it
yourself. See this thread, especially the link in post #14, for more

The previous products could be customized by writing plugins to the
server, the information on the display was sent over the network and put
on the display.
In the new devices the screens are primarily controlled by the local
processors but I think data can still be displayed from the server.
Thank you Gentlemen !
It sounds like when the Touch is released, itll at least be coming
(right out-a the box) with a cool lookn Analog VU meter ~ screensaver
option, which Ill enjoy :-) ! ...
then in a short time, we should see many AMAZING plugins made for it
that take advantage of its

I do. I've tried his Information Screensaver but could not get it to

The Information Screen applet/plugin should work both on SqueezePlay
and hardware
