NetStreams SpeakerLinX Support

Postby Daveman on Mon Nov 29, 2004 5:18 pm

Has anyone tinkered with having XLobby UI drive NetStreams' SpeakerLinX (IP-based amp w/built-in web-server)

Very cool way of getting audio in every room, but needs a slick, consistant UI like XLobby! :idea:

Unfortunately, these are only sold through installers. They are impossible to get for anybody else :(

I think we'll see more of this kind of stuff in the not too distant future. I saw quite a bit of this type of product at the last CEDIA show. Problem is that no one can agree on standards.

i want one of these
Been talking to a dealer, and can now get them :)

To use them need an option to use external commands for each of xlobbys built in audio commands. ie instead using winamp, a command is sent to the SpeakerLinX.
if we could map commands to the built in xlobby ones could use any other software.

How can we get them?

Any idea if NetStreams will cooperate re: commands? Otherwise, I suspect it would be relatively easy to capture command sequences from NetStreams' UI & script into XLobby.

Any thoughts???

There is a 10 page thread on the AVS Forum discussing NetStreams stuff. One of the companies principals does participate. Might be worth checking out:
