This is what works for me (tested on Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003
server).

Installing AlienBBC on Windows

These instructions assume you are installing on to SlimServer V6.

Files you will need:
AlienBBC v0.96 or later: http://www.mrtickle.org/alienbbc.html
Direct link: http://www.mrtickle.org/downloads/alienbbc_0.96.windows.zip
http://www.mrtickle.org/downloads/alienbbc_0.97.windows.zip

http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/win32-beta/MPlayer-mingw32-1.0
pre6.zip
MPlayer 1.0pre6: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/news.html
Direct link:
http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/win32-beta/MPlayer-mingw32-1.0
pre6.zip

Alternatively - MPlayer 1.0pre7:
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/news.html
Direct link:
http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/win32-beta/MPlayer-mingw32-dev
-CVS-050315.zip
(Important: If you use this version you will need to complete step 4 of
the installation instruction as the command line has changed.)

Codec Files: cook3260.dll (6.0.8.2523) and pncrt.dll (6.0.0.0)
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/codecs.html
These files are this zip file Windows Essential codecs

Installing
Extract the AlienBBC zip file into the main slimserver directory (be
sure to retain the folder names). This is usually: "C:\Program
Files\SlimServer\server". If it asks to overwrite Socketwrapper say no
as this is now part of SlimServer V6.

Extract mplayer.exe to the folder "C:\Program
Files\SlimServer\server\Bin\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread"

Extract cook3260.dll and pncrt.dll to the folder "C:\Program
Files\SlimServer\server\Bin\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread\codec" (Note: the
folder "codec" won't normally exist on the default SlimServer
installation.)

For mplayer 1.0pre7 only. Open the file "C:\Program
Files\SlimServer\server\slimserver-convert.conf" and comment out (add a
hash character to the start of the line) the 6 lines that follow "#
Default mplayer up to pre6". Then uncomment, remove the # character
from, the 6 lines that follow "# Alternative for mplayer pre7 or later".

Testing
Run '"C:\Program Files\SlimServer\server\slim.exe" --d_plugin' from a
command prompt to see if there are any errors loading the plugin.
Restart Slimserver and see if AlienBBC appears on the web page and on
the Radio menu on a slim player.
