A bathroom-ready Squeezebox

The most annoying thing about putting your Squeezebox into your bathroom is the fact that you need to manually turn it on or off. Wouldn’t it be awesome if your Squeezebox turned itself on when you switch on the light in the bathroom, and turn off when your leave and switch off the light?

Enter bathroomd, a hugely sophisticated quick hack which reads out your Squeezebox’s ambient light sensor and mutes the playback volume when the ambient brightness falls below a certain threshold, as well as turning the volume back up when the brightness rises above a (second) threshold.

You can find bathroomd at GitHub.
