[QUOTE="burty89, post: 70670, member: 23979"] [url=http://www.burtonsoftware.co.uk/Downloads/PMP.zip]OK, Heres an updated version[/url] It should work as before for the information at the bottom of the screen (position/duration, title, title, artist) but now you should also be able to view your music library by clicking the music button. The music library was a problem because the UDP connection was prone to failing when sending a large amount of data. So, the plugin now runs a seperate small HTTP server which is used when large amounts of data need to be transferred (Music Library/TV Channels/etc). The HTTP server may seem like overkill but its only a small server (it will not serve files from your computer) and it will be useful in the future because I could add the ability to show status etc in a web browser. Currently, the HTTP server is hardcoded to port 27001, so if you're using a firewall make sure the pocketpc will be able to access this port on the server machine. I will add the http port to the configuration dialog later. If you click on TV, it will attempt to retreive a list of TV channels but it currently fails so leave that alone for now. I also spent a lot of time tidying up to servers code ready for when I release it so this is why it took so long seemingly to just to handle the music library. samuel337: OK, I didn't read the whole thread about ECP and it sounds like a great plugin but for something like this I'd rather go with UDP and I've already been using it so my plugin and the compact framework app are somewhat built around it. As for UDP being harder, check out the codeproject page I linked to in my last post, it makes it really easy to handle UDP. I haven't tried ECP, WebPlaylistManager or MPBlue yet, so I have no idea if PMP can co-exist with them or not. I'll certainly try them in the future. [/QUOTE]
