Seth,
It is amazing that when you spend so much time trying to understand and
implement something, that a single piece of information can be all we need
to put the pieces together ('Capes should work out of the box...DTS files
are past tense').
This is particularly true in areas where the technology architecture is
changing quickly and significantly and the much of the online information
is dated.
Thanks!
I have it working.....
