I'm not entirely sure what you should be putting in the host parameter for connection to the squeezecenter mySQL database from a different machine, perhaps some of the squeezecenter experts here can help - it will be the same as for any other app which connects to it (eg. moose). The machine name would be my guess, or the IP address of the machine running squeezecenter. You should still be able to import music directly from your music files though. If you have put \\HPSERVER\music into your music folders (options page 1) with the tick on "Include Subfolders" (and your machine can see this folder), then go to the Music Database page and invoke: Import / from File System / Import from Folders (Full Scan) It should import your music collection. -- jezbo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jezbo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9888 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57629 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
