JimH,
I've installed the latest version (9.1.305) on both the server and the client. The files are of type .mp3 and they play fine on the server. To ensure I've been clear, let me explain again. Let's say I'm at work (client) and I'm connected to my Media Server at home. I select an album from the view scheme called "Global Underground Afterhours", which has about 31 tracks (multiple artists). I double click the first track on the album, and MC immediately skips it, and the next track, and then begins playing track 3. When track 3 ends and MC tries to start playing track 4, it skips track 4, 5 and when it gets to track 6, a dialog box pops up and tells me (I can't remember the exact message) that there's something wrong with the file I'm trying to play. Now, I am very meticulous, so I know that there's nothing wrong with the file(s) that won't play, but I get home and check them just to be sure. Sure enough, there's nothing wrong with them, and they play fine on the server. I should note that this happens with several albums that try to play, regardless of whether or not the albums are multiple artists or not, and regardless of the length of the physical file name (I thought this might be an issue, just guessing, but it doesn't seem to be).
Thanks for your attention.
Wobbley
