Front Row is giving me this error “This song cannot be played.” on every song on a daap-share accessing it via Artist / Album. When acessing the same songs via Playlists the songs play just fine. Within iTunes all songs also play just fine. Furthermore it’s the same behavious on both my macs.
Am I the only one having this issue?
I’m using the latest svn-snapshot.– Håvard[/code]

Nope, there is some breakage with FronRow. Not sure why, exactly, as it works fine with iTunes and FrontRow appears to drive iTunes, so I’m not sure why it doesn’t work. :/
22/01/2007 at 2:29 PM #6742risimmonsukParticipantJust got myself a mac mini and discovered this issue when playing with front row. Don’t suppose there’s been any progress on this – I’m running a nightly build around 1313 (I forget exactly which one) on a buffalo linkstation. Is upgrading to a later nightly likely to make any difference here?
iTunes 7 can get the music fine and frontrow then displays the correct thing in the now playing screen. but navigating to a song directly in front row always fails.
Not too worried by this as the mac mini is supposed to be a web/database server machine rather than a music player, but would be nice if it did work.

Yes. And I want to get it working before iTV ships, as I imagine it will be similarly broken. So no, no progress, but yes, I want to make some.

The one just released. *HAPPY*06/03/2007 at 2:46 AM #6745rpeddeParticipant06/03/2007 at 6:45 PM #6746hsorboParticipantNot with songs transcoded to wav though. I would love to se the ability to transcode to mp3 (or aac or alac). Wav is so heavy on the internet connection.

Wonder when the heck apple started *increasing* interoperability. Seems like they’ve thus far gone out of their way to *break* stuff from other people. This is a pleasant surprise. 🙂

Indeed – seems to work very nicely now. Maybe it wasn’t working with iTunes servers correctly either?
Now all I need is an iPhoto server for my NAS and I’ll be sorted 🙂
