Hi, I am talking about scenario 4 but with different subcases to the ones you have.
The target player is always native (i.e. the Squeezebox). The files are in the WMP12 library of a laptop computer, i.e, "other library". The squeezeserver/white bear are running on a different machine on the network. However, whether they get played depends on where the files are *physically*. If they are on the same machine as the squeezeserver/white bear, then they will play. If they are on a different machine, they won't. Let me lay this out concretely: I have two machines: BIG and LAPTOP. SBS and White Bear run on BIG as services (which itself has Windows Home Server as the OS). I have music files on BIG in its music directory, and also on the LAPTOP, in its own music directory. WMP-12 runs on the LAPTOP and scans the music folders of LAPTOP and also BIG through the network. SBS also scans both the machines, because I have a shortcut to the LAPTOP in the Music folder of BIG. Therefore music on both machines is available both in SBS on BIG and in WMP-12 on the LAPTOP. White Bear now replicates the SBS music library as a DLNA library. Scenarios 1 and 2 work both for MP3s and FLACs as they should, both for files physically on BIG and on LAPTOP. In scenario 4, there are problems, however. If I try to play files to the native player from the WMP-12 library but physically on BIG, they will play successfully, both MP3 and FLAC. However, if I try to play files from the WMP-12 library but which are on LAPTOP, they do not play. Does this make sense? -- Wigster ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wigster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14899 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87559 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
