WOW! That is cool. Congrats! This idea has come up before, but no one has done (at least that I know of) so must be something special about the Gigaport eX, which I did not know existed until now. I think this multi-room player solution sort of a unique thing. Do they sync well? In theory, you could have two of these for 8 sources, right? SLX supports up to 5 "extra" players for a total of 6, but that number was arbitrary. I could increase that to 1+7=8 if the need ever came along. This is really a cool solution, thanks for letting us know. The solution to your problem would be to enable the "Wake Server" option. This will trick SLX into a wait loop for the server it thinks it is waking. I added this tip to the SLX help a couple versions ago (under trouble-shooting).
