Controlling Multiple Squeezeboxes with one SlimServer

Any number of Squeezeboxes on your local 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 upper right-hand corner of 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.

Wake-on-LAN

Your computer may be configured to wake up when you access it with your remote control. To set this up:

Mac: Open the System Preferences and click on the Energy Saver icon, then click Options. Check the box “Wake for Ethernet network administrator access.”

Windows XP: From the Start menu, choose Control Panel, then choose Network Connections. Open Local Area Connection, then click on Properties. Click on Configure, then Power Management. Check the boxes marked “Allow this devices to bring the computer out of standby” and “Only allow management stations to bring this computer out of standby.” Then click OK.

Now, when your computer is asleep, you can press the POWER button on the Squeezebox remote to wake it up.
