Starting tomorrow (20080606), fixes should be available in the nightly builds (http://www.mvpmc.org/builds/) such that mclient (now 2.2) should work with SqueezeCenter 7.0.1 and Slimserver 6.5.4. Slimserver 6.3.0 should work as well, but I have seen some mvpmc resets. I suspect that non-jpeg images are being offered up as jpegs by Slimserver 6.3.0 and causing the mvpmc decoding software some grief. On top of the above fixes I seam to remember adding code to: ----------------------------------------------------------- 1) Stop initial warning about not finding version of server when all is well. 2) Stop resetting mvpmc box when server is rescanning it's collection. Let us know how this version works for you, thanks... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
