how to set the squeezebox as a audio playback device

[bauerder]

Hi,

is there any way to stream my music direcly from pc over the squeezebox. I´ll use the wifi feature to avoid cables. Perhaps theres a way to connect the pc to an external playback device.

Thank you very much in advance.
Regards.

If you want to stream music from your PC to Squeezebox, just install Logitech Media Server on that PC.

If I understand your question, the answer is a qualified yes. The Squeezebox radio has a speaker so you can stream from your PC to it w no other equipment needed. With the Squeezebox Touch you must connect it to an amplifier or powered speakers.

If a file can be played natively by WMP then you should be able to right click on the file and select the device you want to play the file to.
Works fine here.
