I am thinking of adding background sound to a section of my layout. Has anyone used the Pricom Dreamplayer and what are your result and experience? I like the LTE version but am wondering if the trigger can be produced by Digitrax block detection. In other words the player would only start a track if the block becomes occupied?

Prof K I see that your listed in the credits on this product. Do you have input on it? 

Hi Folks:

The Java Model Railroad Interface (JMRI) is an elegant but sometimes complex application growing in popularity beyond its fantastic facility to ease DCC decoder setup. It is free, widely used, and readily available. It has capabilities to monitor trains and track to enable control and signal systems for virtually any model railroad layout. Among its basic control elements are turnouts, usually referring to a track switch or set of “points” but in its most elemental form, really refers to a binary switch.
