Please note that all of the software listed on this page is extremely out of date, and will probably not work with any modern SlimServer version.  The author will get around to updating it all at some point.

Note that some of these modules may not display correctly on the new graphical SqueezeBox.  This issue will be corrected as soon as I get my grubby paws on one of these devices.
