Next Meeting

April 14, 2012

The Short Presentation will be a surprise!
The Long Presentation features the Logitech Squeezebox ecosystem. If you’ve ever thought about having multiple-room, multiple device playback of audio, playing local or Internet-based content, then the Logitech (formerly Slim Devices) Squeezebox platform is for you. Craig Maloney will present what the Squeezebox platform is, what it can do, and how you can set it up tonight without making an emergency stop to the computer store. This presentation will focus on the open source aspects of the Squeezebox platform, as well as discuss how you can expand the platform to meet your music listening needs. If you have ever dreamed of having multiple-room music using open-source software, you won’t want to miss this!

We will be running a web conference also for this meeting. It will be on http://bbb.mdlug.org at the Demo Meeting.
