Assuming there is no bug, subtitle is really "Artist" and will only show in the MoreInfo menu and on Web display. You can get it on SB display if you are using one of 3rd party screen saver. > Also one question for the future... > I intend to get a few SB Radios to extend the system around the house > with a view to listening to either my music library or a radio station > using this plugin. > How will the plugin handle other SB's when 1. trying to open the same > favourite item and 2. trying to open an alternative favourite? Given > that I have only one tuner. I think either 2nd instance will find vlc already in use and may just end up playing silence or stopping. Another possibility is 2nd instance will change the dvb parameters and you will get two vlc streams tuned to same channel. This may be a dvb driver issue. Does the driver support playing many different streams from same freq/program - a bit like you can play many http streams off one network interface. The only definitive answer is to try it and see - nothing will get broken and at worst a PC reboot may be needed. You can sync player if you want same stream out of both. > I can't belive how easy this has been (for me). You did the hard work getting the vlc streaming. Many users give up trying to get the right combination to stream. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21804 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
