Thank you very much for your hint! The cause of the problem was the existance of an inactive/unused network connection which had automatically been setup by Oracles Virtual Box during installation. It did not bother me at all when it was not used and was readily available when I needed it. The pure existance however must have mislead my router, DHCP Server and/or Whitebear to accept it as the network to go for. I deleted the connection and Whitebear is now with us again! Having played around a bit with Whitebear I'd like to say that it works almost like a clock-work and is very responsive also via a Wlan connection. For a permanent use though, I should be provided with the Multilibrary/Custom Browse layout of my Music Collection. Is that something I could expect in the near future? Thanks again for your help. -- ChrisD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ChrisD's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12589 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88099 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
