After my system did an auto update to it's Java version I'm no longer able to get SoftSqueeze to work properly. Basically the Transporter appears (with no remote) but it never attempts to connect to SlimServer and I cannot access any of the SoftSqueeze configuration menus or buttons. The close b

WiMP's seek bar just hangs the player for anything other than minor jumps. From my general experience, I think WiMP's FLAC plugin is a bit flaky. I'm not sure how the song scanner plugin is meant to work - at first glance, the plugin's description doesn't sound like FFwd/REw functionality. I'll

I don't think it will work for Slimserver as DirectX is an API to give better (i.e. "direct") access to the PC hardware - in this case the PC soundcard. There is no windows interface to slimserver to pass sound from an application to the SB so this plugin is not going to work except where the PC

With Foobar you can grab the progress "slider" with the mouse and move it wherever you like. It does not give you "sped up" audio cues while you move it forward, but you can reposition yourself anywhere within the track. Winamp works the same way. I have never used WMP with FLAC, but it has tha
