installation Michael - I'll get there although&nbsp;I have a few
initial problems. There's a lot in this plugin but it lloks like the end
result will be worth it&nbsp;!&nbsp;&nbsp; Gosh even the docs
are some 90 pages !</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

library management and setup - I use CDJ but not TTF or any existing HS
integration in this setup and I never handled (imported) mp3's via CDJ. So
creating the new databases is the task.&nbsp;&nbsp; I am getting a
lot of 'errors' thrown up by the library build routines which only leave me
with abort options, often then the library consistency manger ends up hung.
I'll persevere a bit more and then perhaps give you a shout offlist if
needs be.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color="#0000ff" size="2">One question - the top
level hierarcy of my music has several shortcuts to network shares and some
of these shares are organised as say "Soundtracks"
"Radio"&nbsp; "Albums" "Singles" etc with
the standard artist/album/tracks&nbsp;stuff below - this looks like
it's going to create a problem. The biggest concern to me is that my music
is spread across several disks and hence the shares at the top level. Is
this the hurdle that it appears ?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

result from SlinkeServ mainly, which does not handle known Slink-es
disappearing or changing ports with any elegance. I use mutiple Slink-e's.
I also use velocity server (the Music Lobby interface) with
CDJ.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Arial" size="2">Yes 1.4.3
does have the XAP support for SliMP3.&nbsp; Gordon C. has done the
initial evaluation and now we are waiting for Stuart's update to the
connector.&nbsp; The install for XAP features is not automatic, but the
setup is documented in the manual.&nbsp; I did not want to impose the
infrastructure on those not wanting the XAP support.&nbsp; The only
lockups I have had with CDJ occur when large playlists are used.&nbsp;
I now tend to stay under 200 tracks.&nbsp; Since I do not
have&nbsp;a CD Changer&nbsp;and I have now generalized Now Playing
to be player-independent, I use CDJ only for testing.&nbsp; mcsMusic
has an end-of-February timestamp.&nbsp; I may leave it open longer or
make it available via the HST store, depending upon its maturity at that
time.</FONT></DIV>
