Right, forget slimserver. You dont need it for this, it's just confusing matters. And forget about all this connecting to a http ://***.***.***/stream.mp3 business. You don't need to do this either. It's not how UPNP works and it would be crap anyway as you would always have to change the track/album via the server. Assuming that you PDA connects to your PC via you network perfectly fine (tested this?), you simply just need to have TVersity running. TVersity will need pointing to you music folders like Slimserver does to build a library and you will probably also need to setup up for fire wall. In theory, TVersity should now be broadcasting on the network and any UPNP clients should be able to automatically detect it and connect. Have you made sure you have conduits setup for UPNP? Download and install the UPNP plugin from here - http://www.conduits.com/products/player/plugins.asp Now, if everything is working correctly and you have a connection to your PC, you should just simply be able to go in Browse->Network->select the UPNP server. Then you will see option for Music, album, artist etc. -- autopilot *SlimServer:* 6.5.1 (Windows XP) + AlienBBC, SlimScrobbler & Last.FM. *Amp:* Cambridge Audio 640a (living room) / Denon MD30 (bedroom). *Speakers:* Mission 701's (living room) / Kef Cresta 1's (bedroom). *Remote:* T-Mobile MDA Vario / Sony PSP / Nokia N95 / Harmony 525 (IR). *Clients:* 1 Squeezebox 3 + Softsqueeze.
