bpa, I'm afraid Castalla's settings do not consistently fix the issue I
reported. :-(

Hi bpa, this issue I experience is with playHLS, listening live and
running LMS 7.9 (latest) on a Windows Home Server machine. This same set
up works very reliably playing the same radio station from the home
server itself, a Squeezebox Touch or a Squeezebox Radio. I haven't
tested the other cases...

First, I'm very happy that this plugin exists... as it is a simple/neat
way to extend on an existing LMS system (PIs are good too, but require
more assembly/tweaking). So thanks for your great work!

Two things I've noticed, which may or may not be fixable:

1. Alarms are not that reliable compared to official Logitech hardware
2. When playing hls streams (e.g. BBC), playback doesn't last very long
(sometimes just a few seconds, some times 10s of seconds). With mp3
streams, playback goes on for hours without any issue.
3. Synchronisation (across Chromecast devices and ideally with Logitech
hardware) would be fantastic

Philippe, 

I just went through this whole thread (from the beginning) to see if I
could fix my issue with getting this plugin to work with WHS 2011... and
got it sorted just before reading the very last post (using the same
solution) :mad::mad::mad:

It may be worth adding how to get this plugin to work with Windows
systems in the first post to make it easy on others ;)

Merci!

Great! I must have read too quickly then... The key thing is to
_add_squeeze2cast-win.exe_to_Windows_Firewall's_allowed_programs_list_
as, otherwise, this great plugin can't be used with LMS running on a
windows machine!
