Thanks for your comments Torsten. Wireless spectrum is a concern of mine also, as I use 3 different wireless networks here, which doesnt leave much room for more 2.4GHz stuff. Unfortunately 802.11b is so cheap now, that they use it for everything. -- Justin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Freevo-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users
