So, I've been making slow but steady progress re-writing the player application on the rio receiver. One thing that might be of use to others is how to get a shell over the network without having to open the box and building an interface to get at the serial port. You can find docs here : http://www.reza.net/rio/nc.html

Also, I've written libs to allow me to output text to the LCD, i'll document that and put it up soon.

p.s. I find that when I use Jeff's dev-fs-image, the player works fine, but it produces some static/hissing/clicking sounds when the player is running. It stops if I kill the player application. And it doesn't make any of those sounds when I revert back to the original image. Thoughts? Has this happened to anyone else?
