Hi Wigster,

I finally got back to this topic because someone else has posted
another thread about WMP on this forum.

I cleaned out all my WMP codecs, and reinstalled the latest Shark set.
And yes, I can now play all kinds of music files locally in WMP. But
the Play To function still only "almost" works; which is to say that
WMP does properly send the UPnP commands to set up playing, and
Whitebear safely parses them and adds the track to the player's
playlist. However when the Squeezeplayer tries to actually play the
track WMP returns an HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request error.

This means that the player and WMP are talking to each other, but that
WMP does not want to serve the file. I suppose this could be a firewall
issue, but when WMP is serving a natively supported mp3 track there is
no error, and only when trying to serve a Shark transcoded flac track
does the HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request error occur.

=> Any suggestions?

Try out Whitebear. The middleware that joins the two worlds of:
1. UPnP/DLNA media clients and media players, and,
2. Squeezebox Server and Squeeze Players
