I guessed the origin of the problem: if I enter the ip address in the hostname field everything works fine and I get a working window with LMS Material skin. If I enter the *hostname with no domain* (hence *no "." in it*, just "jukebox" and not "jukebox.localhost") it works fine. It hangs with a black windows only if I enter a *fully qualified hostname*, that indeed *contains a dot character, like "jukebox.localhost"*. For me it now works, but maybe you wish to investigate further whether any parsing code assumes that the presence of a dot implies having an ip address in the hostname field and hence no DNS lookup is needed, and then code takes a wrong path. Thanx for your support, Paolo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ psychokiller's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=67282 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108550 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
