[slim] WHS and AlienBBC
I have just installed WHS on a spare machine, and have successfully installed SC 7.1. All works fine. However... I cant seem to get AlienBBC up and running. I've installed using the .exe, but then get nothing to indicate its installed. Nothing has appeared on the SB2 interface, nothing has appeared on the web interface. Any ideas what's gone wrong ? mplayer seems to be working fine using the test that runs at AlienBBC install.

[slim] streaming wma codec not working
I use my SB2 to stream talksport at night (www.talksport.net). The URL of the stream is mms://194.46.192.142/talkSPORT and it comes up in WMP9 as Windows Media Audio 9 20 kbps, 22 kHz, mono 1-pass CBR. I can only get this to play in the SB2 by turning off native hardware decoding of WMA streams. As a result, the server trancodes it on the fly and it plays without a problem. I dont mind this, but it begs the question why?. Anyone have any idea why the SB2 hardware cannot manage this stream ?

Hi all, Lots and lots of knowledge here, so I'm hoping someone can help with a question. I currently have a Netgear DG834G ADSL wireless hub (or maybe its a switch, I'm not sure!). When we move house, I'm planning on installing cat5 and a patch panel. Due to layout, I wont be able to have the netgear close to the patch panel - so I'll need another switch next to the patch panel. How, therefore, do I wire the netgear and a new switch (ie www.ebuyer.co.uk Quickfind code: 63776) into the network so that I can use the netgear to access the internet from the PCs/SBs ?? I'm thinking: PC switch(via patch panel) then switch - netgear. Do I then just set the gateway/dns etc of the PCs to the LAN side address of the netgear like I do now, or does the inclusion of the switch complicate things ?? Also, can I use any port on the switch to connect up to the netgear on any of its ports ??

Hi all, I am using the latest beta release of 6.2 with a SB2, Windows XP SP2 (firewalls turned off). I can connect and play music no problems when using a wireless connection to the network for the SB2.
