Hi, I'm RaspyFi founder. The points you made are exactly what we have in mind for future releses: 1- multiple users playlist 2- multiroom support

Some of the things you mentioned can be already done. A friend of you can enqueue songs on raspyfi's playlist. The PI can handle 10 simoultaneus clients connected, that means also collaborative play queue. Hope you're enjoying RaspyFi

Would it be possible to add a kind of auto-discover of a web-interface to control the RaspFi? So that friends/guests dont have to install a client or any other app, just by what is bundled on an android, I believe most already have some kind of DLNA, Samsung S3 has it, but they call it Kies or ShareAll or something. So a guest would discover the RaspFi, and control it/manage it like any other dlna device. Do we need to develop some kind of adapter between dlna - mpd?

If you need anyone to help be your test-dummy for multiroom support, I'd be happy to help. Up until last week I was just going to buy 4 20w-amps & 4 Pis to power my 4 rooms, but I recently got ambitious and want to see if I can have just 1 Pi rule them all...
