Following Hugo's answer here, I connected up my empeg through the sled to my home hifi and fed an external source to Line In. The wiring was successful - I got excellent sound at the speakers and could successfully change source between the empeg and the external source.

BUT, to my great disappointment, I discovered that - the visuals don't operate in any other mode than MP3. Both Radio and Line in sources give you just a blank screen, regardless of visual setting.

This tends to imply that the visuals are fed by the MP3 player application only, rather than by the "output stage", and are therefore not independent of input source.

This is a real shame; although some of the visuals do have track info as part of the main display, some of the others do not rely on it and give a dynamic response to the music. Surely it would be more interesting to have these graphics available for the radio and Line in also?

Hugo, any plans to change this so that visuals are active on *all* input sources?
