LinkPlayer Feedback Thread

Thanks a lot!! Now I can go asleep  and give it another try tomorrow.

Is it possible to use an Avant RF with Linkplayer? I'm thinking of using Linkplayer in my AV-setup with a Mac Mini. What type of cabling do I need to connect this Mini? Are there differences between the outputs of the generations Mini? Of course has the Avant only Scart or s-vhs inputs.

Regards,

Bart

Yes you can.

The Avant does not respond to the PC command. So you would be using the Solution 3 on this

THanks Phil! I'm buying a used Mini G4 which has a DVI-out. Just to give it a try!

The G4s may be a bit slow to play some videos, but for music they are fine.

Dear Philippe, should we expect an update coming soon?

I was going to ask the same question, the last update goes back to 5th August,2010..🙁

After being sidetracked to other projects (see signature), I have restarted my work on LinkPlayer, and made some good progress.

As announced (long time ago, I admit), I am now working new sources for online/streaming content. I also have made some improvements to the interface for those who use it on their desktop mac.

Is there any online/streaming content that you guys would like implemented?

Other question (for a distant future...) does any of you uses some kind of home automation system?

P.

Oh, and to actually answer the question... I need a few more weekends before I can release a new version... So I think February.

Hello Phil,

Regarding your question if someone IS using an HomeAutomation system... I have Conson system in both places.

By The way... My linkplayer still hangs from time to time (the house with the vintage mode)...

I didn't want to bother you to much...

Cheers and happy new year.

Michael
