Controlling Multiple Squeezeboxes with One SlimServer

Any number of Squeezebox2, Squeezebox or SLIMP3 on your network can connect to a single SlimServer. Each player operates independently of the others, so you can play different music on each one. You can also synchronize them to play the same music in every room of your house simultaneously.

If you have more than one player connected to your SlimServer, a drop-down list will appear in the web interface so that you can choose which player to control.

To synchronize multiple players with the web interface:

1.In the web interface, click on Player Settings, then Audio.

2.In the Synchronize section of the page, choose the player that you’d like to synchronize. Click Change.
