Thanks, John for your reply. I was getting a bit bogged down in the PlugPlayer forum experience!

Thanks, John for your reply. I was getting a bit bogged down in the PlugPlayer forum experience!

Got it after another half-hour's research! http://192.168.1.XXX:[Port]/DeviceDescription.xml

I'm struggling to work out how to configure the PlugPlayer iTouch app with a new Buffalo Linkstation. I've done it before, but honestly have no idea how. The PlugPlayer interface asks for the Device URL, which I know is http://[NAS ip address]:[port number]/Device...something! What should the...

If everybody posted consistently in capital letters, perhaps hearing impairment would be less of a problem.

I should add that, while the player is badly marked, I can't see that there is any obscured code.

I can't find a maufacturer's code for it; pointedly it has Slim Devices, not Logitech on the chassis, but has the two digital outputs and headphone socket. But thanks, nads, for the forum tip. 'Hadn't thought that one through...

Is there any software which will convert ALAC tracks "on-the-fly" with reasonable results on the older, wired player? (I'm assuming that there were never any upgrades issued to do this more directly.) Or is there any other way, shy of converting the files wholesale to MP3? Grateful for any help!

I still can't get the Songbird remote app to recognise the laptop - any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks, nads. Do you mean the Apple "Remote" app? Yup, apart from a few frewall problems, it's brilliant. But I'm without my NAS for a bit, can't access my whole library and am using Songbird to play what's stored on my laptop + portable drive. I love Songbird - instant convert - but simply...

I have installed the free Songbird Remote app 1.2.1 onto a 3rd gen Touch and Songbird 1.7.3.1700 build onto my Windows (Vista 32-bit) laptop. When the app is fired up on the Touch, the laptop Songbird isn't recognised. I have tried to download further rom the Songbird site, but am having...

Thank you. I have seen this as a possibility; may I have your thoughts? A Seagate BLACKARMOR NAS220. Approx. twice as much as I wanted to spend, but it is twice...
