> i2c ????.......Isnt it serial data ??

Not really sure what i2c is, philips website left me not much the wiser.

The slimp3 uses an i2c to control all the hardware functions (like display,
decoder, volume etc)

So even to set left hand volume you have to specify a bank, a command, a
volume level in a very specific format for the udp packet (this format is
probably slimp3 specific as the i2c commands on the squeeze box seem quite
a
bit different).

As the squeezebox is different (and it uses a comination of udp/tcp, rather
than just udp like the slimp3) this means the mods (when working) will only
support slimp3 not squeezebox. xPLRioNet won't support squeezebox until I
can get my hands on one...

I've started reverse engineering the commands, it'll just take a bit longer
than I thought.

Tony
