also keep in mind that even with the TOUCH (which doesn't have a web GUI) one can control the TOUCH with SQUEEZEPLAY on a computer (within squeezeplay choose TOUCH as the player). Download here. http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.5 In SQUEEZEPLAY, choose SETTINGS > SYNCHRONIZE to do your settings. p.s. Yes, I use iPENG as my controller and it makes synching multiple players really easy. -- garym ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80687 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
