Extra features!? Ideas?

[Maruko]

Hi all,

I am searching for a 'cheap' Sonos system (www.sonos.com)
It's quite expensive if you have 6 - 7 rooms where you want to play music.

What I want,

In my house I want to play everywhere music (multi-room) so on each room a separate sound box with possibility to separate mp3's playing.
Well this is possible with SubSonic, so thats nice.

But what I'm missing, I would like to remote control the sound boxes with my Android phone.
So I would like to start a App on my Android phone and then, tell it to play music A in room A, and music B in Room B

For now - my plan is to buy a cheap Android tablet (100$) on all rooms, with my own speakers. (price depends on quality)
Attach the speaker on the android tablets and Install the Android App.

But it would be nice if I can remote control those tablets / speakers from within my Android phone. It's like Jukebox, but also on every client..

Does anyone has ideas within this? Suggestions or is this possible in future?


-------------------------------

I tested video (music video) to open on my Android phone, but it starts an browser, it won't start within the App, is this normal behaviour? Cause in the browser I first need to double click for full screen, would be nice if the video can show in the App itself. (feature request?)

-------------------------------

I can add Internet Radio on Subsonic sites, but not any client seems to support it to open it?
Ofcourse I can go myself on the client to the internet radio directly, but it would be nice to have it all into 1 interface.

-------------------------------

Wake On Lan option added. It's very easy to implement (I guess)
For now Subsonic server has to be on all the time if I want to be able to play music all the time. Would be nice if (all) clients have option to wake up lan the Subsonic server, wait for a min and then play the music. (For now I will use 2 different apps / clients) there are some software out there, who can do this with command line tools etc.

--------------------------------

After all these requests, I would like to say, I am also willing to pay, for if these features get builtin, cause if it will be, I can also advice it to my customers (We are starting to offer Home Automation to our customers - Where music playing is ofcourse also a part of Home Automation. (Where feature #1 is the most important for me!)
Can anyone built this in, maybe for a donation?

Thanks!

Maruko.
