A couple of weeks ago I finally updated to 7.0 of SC (from 6.4 or 6.2 or something like that). My box is running Linux and I have the latest and greatest version of SC installed.
Ever since I updated to SC7 I've been unable to stream Live365. The summary of my problem... I stream my music from my SqueezeCenter on my home server to my desktop (also Linux) at work. I do this using the http://...:9000/stream.mp3 URL. I need to listen to Live365 via this stream but in order to do so I need to register the "player" with SqueezeNetwork. Because the "player" is software (Beep Media Player) playing a stream rather than a physical box (Squeezebox) I cannot get a PIN for it, cannot register it with SqueezeNetwork and cannot listen to Live365 at work anymore thereby apparently wasting my yearly subscription fee to Live365 since I rarely listen to it on the two SB3s that I have at home. I contacted support and just completed a very frustrating experience. It took the CS rep a number of exchanged emails before he stopped sending me scripted responses and actually READ my problem. At that point he told me that, no, there is no way for me to get a PIN for my streaming player and so I'm SOL and, gee, what's the big deal why don't I just go over and stream from the actual Live365 site anyway? Ahem... My question to the forum is: WTH? Why was the decision made to change the software so that it REMOVES a piece of functionality like this? Are there plans to put it BACK? Is there any hack that I can use to mock up a PIN for my streaming player and get it registered on SN? -- Muriartagh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Muriartagh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4982 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48228 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/squeezenetwork
