whole house audio- sort of

["happy_hammer66" <bill.mcmahon@xxxxxxx>]

SHMBO wasn't too impressed with the RIO's because she couldn't get 
the standard FM radio station she liked. With only a dial-up modem 
for internet access i had to find another way. Mark McCall gave me 
the pointer from an earlier post to use Shoutcast. So last night i 
put in an old FM Card i got on ebay (reveal 300) and using shoutcast 
i can stream this via Jreceiver to the rio's. Excellent.

Next step tonight is:

Use Shoutcast to stream to all rio's around the house, either the 
radio or some other mp3 playlist i have, and if i select the same 
playlist on all the rio's, i have whole house audio.
Someone on the Jreceiver group has already reported no sync problems 
when streaming to his two rio's  

Next step after this is :

Get homeseer evemts and phone messages sent to the rio's

Next step .....and on and on and on and on....
