I didn't do any actual testing - all I gave was advice in a general way. I think the issue abotu WMA and WMA pro is about the MIME type for the stream and IIRC PlayWMA did not setup any MIME support for WMA pro so if disabled natively LMS would not be able to play the stream. > But the important thing: It works again!

I have to move the plugin from google "code" to github/sourceforge so I may look at the plugin but it would be minimal change since I don't use it much in recent years. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51002 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
