Alright, I tried the handheld skin and Whoa! it is perfect! So at the very minimum I have a very full featured wireless control device.
Next I tried to get the rss streaming method to work. Here is the xml file I put on my web server and pointed the browser on the PSP at. The PSP browser recognized the file as a rss feed and it lets you add it. You can then go to the rss browser on the PSP and your new stream appears. However this is where everything goes terribly wrong. Not a single one of those streaming feeds: di.fm trance, xtcradio.com, nor http://192.168.1.48:9000/stream.mp3 (my slimserver) work. This must be fixed! The error I get for trying this : Code: -------------------- The server does not support this feature. -------------------- Hrmm I doubt it is the server that is the problem you lazy Sony bums... Of course the big disappointment is Slimserver, as you all know the server can be used to stream music so the inability to access shoutcast streams doesn't matter much. I am pretty stumpted as what could be the source of the problem. I have played around with the meta type in the <enclosure> tag in the xml file but haven't had any luck. One possible idea is the slimserver is trying to stream at a bitrate higher than the PSP can handle, I'm going to play with that now. Any insight here? An interesting note, I pointed the PSP browser at http://192.168.1.48:9000/stream.mp3 and it started downloading the stream as if it where a file. Of course it was a stream so it continued for many megs until I got bored and canceled the ill fated download attempt. This file was named t1.xml so to add the rss feed properly to the PSP I pointed the PSP browser at http://192.168.1.102/~pow/t1.xml. Where the ip address is that of your local server.
