Are there now any plans to port iPeng to the Android phones?

Well, why not?
But we will first get the iPhone app out.

All hail the penguin.

Just a praise for this extremely well built plugin.
I have just stumbled on your plugin today, and I have to say I like what I am seeing. It looks so close to apples included music player I was fooled at first when I saw the now playing page. And the promise of local playback on the iphone makes me smile. cudoz

Definitely a most excellent app – possibly the best Safari-based one I’ve seen for the iPhone. Can’t wait for the native one though – any ETA?

Jordan,

you need a player as well. Currently, you can NOT stream to the iPhone. We are working on a workaround to enable something like flytunes (playing back the files on your server) but this is still in the making.
iPeng is a remote control app. If you want to play the music on your Mac or PC you also have to start SoftSqueeze.
SoftSqueeze comes with SqueezeCenter, so it’s already installed on your system. To start it, you will have to load SqueezeCenter from your PC or Mac: open your local browser and enter “localhost:9000″ and then you can select “SoftSqueeze” under “Extras”. It will give you the option to install it on your desktop, then.

As soon as you have started SoftSqueeze it will connect to your server and you can control it with iPeng.

Oh,
I had squeezeserver installed for just my user, not all users. But I tried reinstalling for all users (so I could use /Library) and reinstalled iPeng and restarted but it still says player:none and Squeezebox Music Player: Your player was not found.

Heya,
I can’t get this to work, using SlimServer 7.0 or 7.0.1, on the iPhone 3G. It keeps saying ‘Player not found’ when I click the little duck. Also on the main screen of iPeng it says player:none. I’ve tried accessing it both with my local and external IP.
When I try to go to stream.mp3 in quicktime it says movie cannot be played like you mentioned due to a bug in the iPhone. But I assume you got this to stream to the browser somehow in the now playing screen? (how?) I’m using version 051.
Any help is appreciated! The interface looks sleek and I can’t wait for the app store version.
