The FireBall FP-1 integrates the iPod within a digital media network, enabling streaming and control of music from and between the iPod and other media storage and playout devices. The unit also provides the full on-screen management features of the FireBall range for iPod. The universal iPod dock combines management and streaming of music from iPod, as well from networked PCs and Macs and other music servers, to an entertainment system, using the free FireBall browser based interface.
Integrating control of all digital music network devices, and accessing them from a single on-screen web-based user interface, the FP-1 enables streaming of audio from an iPod to other devices via the USB connecting dock. The FB-1 supports first and second generation iPod nanos, iPod mini, iPod with colour display and iPod with video.
