How are you creating the stream on VLC ? Give the full command line. LMS will require either a suffix or a MIME type in the stream from VLC - just an URL ending with a port number will not work. IIRC (adn this was a few years ago) only VLC MP3 stream used to work - VLC couldn't put Flac in an acceptable transport protocol. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109256 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
