Brilliant!
I was doing the same thing. I had tried this many months ago and given
up, but now I have seen the light.
I have ports 9000 and 9090, TCP and UDP, all forwarded to my server.
(Possibly overkill, I will experiment)
I then open the stream in WinAmp or Media Player via
http://externalIP:9000/stream.mp3
If I then refresh the simserver in my browser via
http://externalIP:9000 I see there's now two players listed - my
internal one as normal, but also the IP address of where I am coming
from on the web. If I then queue up songs on this player, it streams
perfectly to me across the web.
Jim,
The ports you need to open up are listed in the FAQ:
http://slimdevices.com/su_faq.html#networking
To summarise, you need:
3483/tcp (Slimserver Control)
3483/udp (SlimDiscovery)
9000/tcp (Slimserver Web)
A suggestion:
1. Sort out your IP ports as above.
2. From your remote PC, open up a web page to your slimserver:
http://externalIP:9000
3. Download and install Softsqueeze.
You'll get a much better experience using Softsqueeze rather than WinAmp
or Media Player.
