Hi
I just bought a Soundbridge M1001. Great machine- got it working with MWP 11 and some MP3. 🙂
I obviously want to get it working on my PC with iTunes 7.
I installed Bonjour and then Firefly (all latest versions as off today).
I use a simple ‘one pc’ set-up, windows XP Home SP2.
Soundbridge finds the Fire Fly Media server.3 Issues which seem to be linked:
1) Firefly does not find any songs in my Music folder
2) iTunes shows Firefly in the Shared list, but no songs
3) when clicking on the configuration tag in the web view, nothing comes up; so I cannot add multiple music folders (read in a recent forum message that there could be a solution).Hope I get this sorted out. 😕

Is that on the C: drive? Locally? Or are the music files on the network?
Does it say anything in the “Log” tab of the tray applet?
3) when clicking on the configuration tag in the web view, nothing comes up; so I cannot add multiple music folders (read in a recent forum message that there could be a solution).
Can you try with firefox? And which version of firefly are you using? The one from Roku’s site, or the one from the nightlies page?
Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply.
Yes, the music files are on the C:drive; locally.
Yes, it says the following in the log file:

😳 What is Firefox ? Another media server ?

Another possibility might be if the path to the music files contains special (non US) characters. That could be something as well.
A newer nightly *should* fix that, although I have only a limited ability to test it, as I don’t have very many files with non-english filenames and stuff.

Oh, no. Sorry. Another web browser. I was wondering if it was possible that there is a bug that makes it not work with IE, although I haven’t seen that problem before.
Firefox is here. I mention that one just because it is free and very popular (not only because of its price but the fact that it is generally less prone to popups, accumulating junkware, etc).
Oh! Are you using IE 7? I actually haven’t tested the web pages with IE 7, so I’m not sure they work. That might be part of the problem too. Eeek.

Well, thanks for that. In the path there was a character Ä, in Ägaren (means user). I moved the music files to another path with only standard characters and it did the trick. 😀
On Firefox ….
I think I still call this browser Mozilla – sorry I did not understand it directly. I tried with Firefox and the configuration works now.
I do have IE 6, not 7 … so there must be another issue.
Could it be that my IE blocks something so the page only shows the title ‘Configuration’ when clicking on it ? 😯@Sven GT wrote:

A newer version of firefly from here should probably do it too.

Perhaps. The page does use javascript. Is javascript turned off? that might do something.
Glad to hear you got it going though.
