Title: UPnP and Radio stations/streams
Post by: Rob L on March 10, 2005, 04:45:16 pm
I was wondering how the UPnP server in MC 11 handled streams.

It *looks* like it just doesn't - when I try and access one from my MP101, it just says the service is unavailable.

Is that because MC 11 is sending the URL information wrongly? As far as I'm aware, the server should be able to just point the client at an external URL and the client should be none the wiser.

I can understand if it's just not implemented yet - is it something that's on the list?

Thanks

Try adding it to a playlist.

That was the only way I could get to see it at all :-)

But I'm *guessing* it's not sending the URL info correctly...

maybe the new build today will help?

Is it a format that the device plays?

yep, I've connected to them before using other server software...

It would be nice if you could use this thread:
