I guess what's going on is that the headless server and MusicIp GUI
aren't actually talking to each other, only reading and writing to the
same dbase.
Funny how the Test Connection button on the server tab actually
works?

I never did that on the Vista/Win7 installation either. It did not help
on the WHS system either, so I too doubt the purpose.. It made no

Is there a way the API from Music IP can be inaccessible to

My apologies. I have not yet closed the other post and referenced this

I have tried running it without the firewall on... that did not work.
Since both servers are on the same box, I don't believe the firewall
should block it. that said: after running with the

MusicIP API error - invalid request or internal error.
This can result if the file to be mixed can't be found by mip. Does it happen
with all files? Are you using the same unc path in mip?

Hi there,
OP here. No, I never got this working. I spent a lot of time on it and
gave up frustrated. It just seems it needed too many steps to get it to
work. I have fallen back on erland's dynamic playlists which I have
tweaked to use keywords I have embedded in the comment fields of my
mp3s.
Although I was not able to help matthijskoopmans with his WHS/MIP issue
so far, I can confirm having a working WHS/MIP(headless)/Squeezeserver
installation over here.
If it helps, that's the Squeezeserver version I'm using:

You guys who are using MusicIP - do you know if the analysis servers are

The analysis server seems to be up and running. (much unlike my

hi Michael,
I seem to be stuck where SqueezeBoxServer invokes MIP via the API to
send a seed for mixing, and receive the mix back. Here is the log output

Well I can tell you that the MIP plugin and the Sugarcube are mutually

SugarCube does obviously utilise utf8 and I guess something has changed
