I haven't yet updated the CVS but I have a clue about the problem - It
arises under following conditions:

  Clean install with no mp3's in db or in cache
  A deadair.mpe file that obs doesn't like (although no problem with
previous installation)

  If I added files to cache and db using tarball version of obs and then
installed and ran the CVS version, then all OK.

  I could also get a clean install to work using a different deadair.mp3
file.

  I'll try the updated CVS some time tomorrow.

I'm attaching "double-slash.zip" in a separate copy of this message
(mailed direct instead of via the list). It contains obs.log and two mp3
files that exhibit this behaviour. I only currently have six scrungy old
test mp3s - I'm going to rip some CDs this weekend  - maybe I am using a
biased sample.

One other minor issue ;^) - I think there is a problem with the install
script if using the "./configure --prefix=[path] option.... obs still
looks for a config file in "/usr/local/etc" even though on=bs get
correctly copied to the --prefix directory structure.

Apart from that, all seems to be fine... and while I think of it, when
your boss gives you a couple of weeks to play with the next release, it
would be really nice to have some kind of search capability.

Unfortunately I am a lousy programmer and pretty dum in general, but if
there is some other way i can assist please don't hesitate to ask.

R.


PS. With Obs multicast on a multi segment LAN, is it necessary to add a
routing entry for  -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0? This was suggested
in a Linux Multicats HOW-TO that I read some time ago.
