Thanks leviathan18, was just playing with the Squeezebox stuff today, partly seeing how well a single remote could handle mutliple backends without either
a) compromising the full functionality of any individual device and
b) bloating the application beyond a clear single purpose.

Have to admit I do find the appealing of supporting many different servers appealing. One problem is not having access to the various set ups required.

Does boxee have a pretty good web interface do you know? and is mcp Media Player Classic or something else entirely?

cheers
