Surely you must have set up something specific during your earlier installs. Softsqueeze webstart uses a common prefs file, which means the same "mac address" each time you run it. As SC uses the MAC address as the client id, you therefore get each softsqueeze client trying to be the same client. The display information flickers and playback is nearly impossible (I've not tried in a setup with hardware AND software players, but SC would always appear to lock up in a setup with only two copies of Softsqueeze). This is nothing new to 7.2.
However, if you go into the prefs of one instance and set it to another mac address and reset, this should allow both instances to work. -kdf On 28-Sep-08, at 5:07 AM, meep wrote: > > Hi > > Just updated to 7.2 and latest everything (squeezebox firmware, > softsqueeze etc.) > > With previous versions, I could run multiple copies of softsqueeze > on a > single PC (multi-zone system).
