I don't have MiP GUI running at all and haven't had the issues you're describing.

Mine's blank and I can see all my albums, album artwork etc. via the Web UI and Controller. Brian Ritchie;309996 Wrote: > Sigh. I was so hopeful that I'd finally got it to work.

Don't know what else to suggest other than above. What's changed since it last worked for you - new music, box rebooted etc? Finally, are you running MiP headless/SC on Linux or Windows? If it's Windows, I'm going to be controversial and recommend you consider Linux - one thing about Linux is things either work or they don't, and once working they keep working, there is no middle road. -- egd Internet forums: conclusive proof depth of gene pool is indeed variable, monkeys can be taught to cut code, and world peace is utterly unrealistic... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ egd's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3425 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48270 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
