The "blobs" are part of the new interface, so that should be alright. Are you sure you put the new exe, dll, and config file in the bin/win32-multithreaded directory? Check the timestamps on those. If they aren't right, stop slimserver, replace them with the new ones, and restart it. -- totoro squeezebox 3 -> mccormack dna .5 -> audio physic tempo 4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ totoro's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5935 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31232 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
