I can't be sure - IRC the message text is generated by the OS as a result of an error code returned by the network drivers. Is it "local host" or "localhost" ? I'm not sure it matters that much as the problem only manifests itself for a few users which means it is probably a system setup issue rather than a plugin code one. > Q2: After I have selected the track to play (Spotify or WiMP) or the > radio station, does the data traffic go directly from the Squeezebox to > the router or thru my server? Depends on the player and your setup. In Ireland we do not have Spotify or Wimp so I can only guess. For Touch players with default settings using http - then radio station with AAC and MP3 play directly from station to player with a separate back channel of program info going from player to LMS. OGG streams will also play direct. I don't know what happens in Wimp or Logitech Spotify. With Triode Spotify I believe there is a propriatery protocol which means Spotify sends to LMS, LMS decoes and sends audio stream (OGG I think) to player.

I only suggested the change for BBC plugin. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96670 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
