Hi James Thanks! I found if I run \program files\SlimServer\server\slim.exe then this did the scan and is running all my devices fine. However, it appears to run in a DOS window on my PC. If I close it, then the server disappears! It appears to be something wrong with the slimtray.exe - which when I run just this states starting but nothing else. I have checked the services as you suggest and there is no slimserver service listed. I assume this must be the problem! How do I install the service?

Cool new Squeezebox - now it has form aswell as function! One request though, it is really crying out for a companion amplifier (prefereably class-T, based upon the chip from http://www.tripath.com/ ). The vision is that either there is a version of Squeezebox with the amp built-in, or the Squeezebox sits or docks onto the amplifier. The amp need only be a straight power-amp (to keep costs down) with no gain control, as you can do that from the Squeezebox (probably need a firmware/software update to ensure that it can never turn-on at full volume...). Thanks for a great product, E.Salad (a loyal Squeezebox customer) p.s. the T-Amp, based on the tripath chip, has been getting rave reviews all over the interweb. p.p.s. once I get my new Squeezebox (as soon as they are available in the UK) I may try to self-integrate my old one with a built in Amp and let you know the results. -- enricosalad ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
