I have iTunes running on one computer and several Airport Expresses around the house, which I control with the iTunes Remote app on my iPhone. I'm thinking about replacing an aging Media Center computer with a Mac Mini, and it would be great if I could have that computer impersonate an Airport so that I could direct music to its speakers.
Is there a way to do that? Otherwise I would have to have an Airport sitting next to it and have some way of switching the speakers from the Mini to the Airport.
I knew about Airfoil and Airfoil Speakers, but never really had a use for it. Then a month ago I was making a wiring diagram to help me hook up two computers and their speakers, such that either computer could control one or both speakers with minimal cable swapping. About the time I decided I needed to build my own switching box, I remembered Airfoil, gave it a try, and its been a perfect fit ever since. – Curtis Tasker – 2009-07-17T00:58:53.753
