Hello!
I have a simple and cheap RFID Reader (see example here:
http://thetransistor.com/2011/10/hacking-cheap-rfid-readers/)
I think it should be possible to connect this to the Squeezebox Touch.
The RFID reader has a USB connection and logs on as a keyboard. if an
RFID tag has been read it types the ID of the Tag.
I thought I can run a simple bash script:
Code:
--------------------
#!/bin/bash -xv
while [ true ]
do
read -p "Warte auf RFID Code.... " code
echo "Folgender Code wurde eingelesen: $code"
echo "00:04:20:22:91:6d display $code" | nc -i 1 192.168.183.20 9090
echo "00:04:20:22:91:6d playlist play $code" | nc -i 1 192.168.183.20
9090
done
--------------------
and add some playlists with the number.
I have tried to run the script on startup. But nothing happens. I get no
input from the RFID reader.
I can see in dmesg this:
Code:
--------------------
input: USB Reader With Keyboard USB Reader With Keyboard as
/class/input/input3
input: USB HID v1.10 Keyboard [USB Reader With Keyboard USB Reader With
Keyboard] on usb-fsl-ehci.0-1
--------------------
But i dont know, how i can bring it to work.
Can you help me? That would be a very cheap and low-power (without
microcontroller) solution to let the children play with music. Just a
few pictures on the RFID cards and the children can choose the music
itself.
I have found also this:

He has changed the /etc/inittab to use a RFID Reader with his script. My
changes on the touch had no changes made.
Do you have any ideas how this can be done?
Regards
blondie
