Controlling Multiple Players with one SlimServer

Any number of Transporters or Squeezeboxes can connect to a single SlimServer. Each 

player operates independently of the others, so you can play different music on each 

one. You can also synchronize them to play the same music in every room of your house 

simultaneously.

If you have more than one player connected to your SlimServer, a drop-down list will 

appear in the upper right-hand corner of the web interface so that you can choose which 

player to control. 

To synchronize multiple players with the web interface:

1.  In the web interface, click on Player Settings, then Audio. 

2.  In the Synchronize section of the page, choose the player that you’d like to 

synchronize. Click Change.
