RE: DLNA Devices
Guess that's where you and I disagree. I actually do believe this will change in the next gen. Imho, it has to if they want to stay competitive in the set top box market unless they actually do have plans for their own TV set which I don't believe they do. They will be competing not only with other set top boxes like Roqu but also with smart TVs. I believe you will see all kinds of new stuff on the next gen Apple TV including app support opening up the way for web browsers, and yes, even file browsers with DLNA support without any sort of jailbreak required.

Re: DLNA Devices
In full agreement and I do the same thing with my Chromecast but as I've said before and I'll say again, no Third Party App - as things stand at the moment - can ever do DLNA for the Apple TV due to the Closed nature of that device, Apple consider that the iCloud service they have with the iCloud Drive and so on is good enough and The Chromecast is a wonderful idea from Google, I've spoken of it before as have other list members so I won't go through all the boring details, suffice to say that if you're looking for a cheap set top box solution that's incredibly compact for a bargain price then the Chromecast is certainly worth the look, turns your TV literally into a smart TV. it probably would be for most people, upload your files to the iCloud and browse them there, buy your videos, rent your movies etc. On 24 Sep 2014, at 4:23 am, Rick Alfaro rick.alf...@gmail.com wrote: I also have a ChromeCast and although it doesn't support DLNA directly, I can certainly use any of many Android apps that do support DLNA and will work with ChromeCast.

Re: Working Winamp controls from anywhere?
I have WinAmp running in the background always to hear radio or files from the disk. I configured WinAmp not to show up in the Alt+Tab order. So I use a shortcut if I want to access the WinAmp window. But I also set global hotkeys so that I can change volume, tracks and move forth and back in tracks with out bringing up the WinAmp window. Go to preferences CTRL+P and find global hotkeys. Here you can enable and change the hotkeys. Maybe it's a bit dificult because after define a hotkey you have to hit set. To hit set you have to activate JAWS cursor, find set and activate it by the mouse keys on the keyboard. You can't use Tab to find set because the the hotkey will change to use the Tab key. When it's done you can control it from any where in Windows. For example if I'm using Internet Explorer and want to control WinAmp with out leaving IE then I hit CTRL!Shift+F9 to turn down or CTRL+Shift+F10 to turn up volume, CTRL+Shift+F1 to start playback TRL+Shift+F2 to stop playing etc. OZ0TE Jacob Skype-ID: Jacob-DK On 23/09/2014 at 21.52 Gerardo Corripio gera1...@gmail.com wrote: HI guys I start playing a Playlist on Winamp via the Play in winamp option from the Windows Explorer Folder; Winamp starts, thus imagine having to Alt+tab with the music until I find the Winamp window to control b to go to the next song etc! so is there a way I could quickly get to the Winamp window, or maybe have Winamp's controls be able to work globally from anywhere in Windows, thus avoiding the hassel of having to hear Jaws plus the music while Alt+tabbing to go to Winamp itself? -- Enviado desde mi lap Gerardo J Corripio Flores Psicólogo, Terapéuta Reiki Saludos desde Tampico, Tamaulipas México RompiendoBarreras espacio de psicología/Superación Personal Sábados 10PM México http://radiogeneral.com ¡los esperamos!
