I think I'm stumped on this one. I honestly don't know what else to do. Have you checked the file type associations from within Winamp and settings in express rip? Just curious. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Tom Kaufman Sent:

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

Dan, I couldn't find any reason why Express rip would come up when Tom inserts a CD. I am thinking that another instance of express Rip is running on his machine. Maybe he can bring up the task manager with Control shift escape and see if it is running. If it is, kill it and see what happens.

You may be right I honestly don't know but there's not even a hint that there will be a next Generation of Apple TV, guess we'll have to wait and see. Certainly the competition is out there for the Apple TV but DLNA control is only one factor, the Chromecast - a most worthy Set Top Box in its

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. Again, it's the third party app actually providing the DLNA support. You can't beat it for $35 but I just don't care for Android

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

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
