got the beta version up and running - client and server both working straight out the box. Many thanks - all the hard work paid off!
Because it says it won't work on the client and the server at the same time, the first thing I did was to try and run it on both to see what happened (Im the kind of guy that just can't help pressing the big red button marked 'don't push'). Of course it eventually crashed both machines - but in the process I came up with a possible work around (until a full multi instance version is released
) - would it be feasible to instigate some sort of clone mode on the client whereby the radio buttons are disabled, but it can play back the mp3 being generated on the server so at least you can have radio in both rooms, even if it's the same channel and controlled from one room only? That's basically what I get if I hit play on both machines and leave it alone - it obviously doesn't like being controlled from two locations simultaneously or told to play two different stations at once (that's what crashed them).
EDIT: so now i'm trying to use the plugin 'properly' and just to let you know it all works wonderfully on the client OR the server. My only request would be some kind of logic to prevent button presses on the other machine (either way round) being recognized to avoid any lock-ups and keep the WAF up.
ps The wiki states that the client only works in file sharing mode - mine's set to streaming in the main gbpvr config and on first inspection seems to work fine. Is this just good luck, or do you mean that just the dvbt plugin is working in file sharing mode?
