I'm pretty sure that you're right about that. > The last version I could get to work properly with mvpmc > was 6.5.4 - still > called slimserver. I believe you. I had varying levels of success with previous SB Server versions 7.x but 7.5.4 just reboots MVPMC. I use a Squeezebox Radio and notice that it usually wants a firmware update right about the same time they release a new Server. They could easily bundle protocol changes in their software updates that render old clients virtually useless. The "best" option would be building another PC-ish media client but it would sure be nice if I could use stuff I already have. I currently use my MVPMC as a networked MPEG-2 player by sharing a HTTP URI in a M3U playlist file, pointing at a LAN stream served by VLC. Do you think the same technique would work to decode a MP3 stream? e.g. squeezeserver.m3u <contents> http://192.168.x.x:9000/stream.mp3 I'd have to set up the Squeezebox Server playlist through other means, but at least I could play background music.
