Re: [mh] mp3 control over a network

I am having a challenge in getting this to work as well.

I have a Fedora Core 3 version running, and have modified the .ini entries consistent 
with what others have added.

So, let's say I have the httpq plug-in for WinAmp (which allows me to configure the 
server to either 0.0.0.0 or the assigned ip address.

Perhaps I am missing something, but when I go to the mp3 page in Misterhouse, I can 
neither find / invoke an mp3 (stored on my media server), nor does winamp come up with 
httpq accessing the files.

If I delele the mp3 file listings in winamp, and remove the directory path (to the mp3 
media server samba mount), winamp will not find files on a rescan (even with httpq 
invoked in Misterhouse).

Forget about the control buttons..... this is probably so simple, but...

mp3_dir=\\De100c-gj\export\mappings      (where the artist\album\mp3 files are located)
or
mp3_dir=/var/ftp/public/music/mappings (samba mount point - where 'export' is mounted)

mp3_program=C:\Program files\Winamp\winamp.exe
mp3_program_control=httpq
mp3_program_password=pass
mp3_program_host=192.168.0.133   (De100c-gj server IP - 192.168.0.102 is where MH is)
mp3_program_port=4800

Ideas?
