This sounds very like the problems I had with MiP with Squeezecentre running on OSX. I got the M icons but things wouldn't play; eventually just gave up. I will try again when 7.3 is released properly I think. And when I have some time spare... In the meantime, I've been copying playlists

Yes, MiP is much better than that. Plus, if you find that MiP is getting redundant, you can tweak some parameters to mix it up (pun intended) a bit. It happens often enough that I'll pick an electronic song as a seed and get some jazz in there. It seems strange to look at, but once the mix

OK - so here's my new theory (I'm going to crack this if it kills me). Now that I figured out the path in SC has to be the UNC path instead of the mapped path name (ie. in my case, \\Nas-01-13-59\media\Music\FLAC Files), I noticed that in MiP the Library path is to the same folder but designated

1) clear and re-scan the SC library, while leaving the UNC path in the music folder: That should do it - I did say in my first post that the path has to be the same. Phil ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com
