NetRadio Problem

[djhorv]

I am having a problem connecting to a shoutcast servers since I have upgraded to 97.13.

I get failed to connect to server even though I can access the same server if I run WinAmp on the same machine.

Here is a log snippet. (note log snippet is from an MVP session, but I get the same error when I try locally).

_________________________________________

The strange thing is that although I installed the MyPicturesPlugin, I never got it working so I disabled it in the plugins window.

Anybody have any ideas or things I can try?

Thanks.

Mhm, this won't help you, but perhaps it will help sub, because someone else has same errors in his logs:

It occured to me to read the MyPictures Wiki.

Apparently disabling mypictures is not sufficient, you must delete the mypicturesplugin.dll from the plugins directory.

Doing that fixed it.

Thanks anyway.

Yep, what he said. Delete the my pictures plugin DLL from the plugins directory.
