Does anyone know of any software that will support UPnP? Otherwise I have to set up a Shout Cast server as well. Thanks James

Anyway I have a UPnP media server running in my house that feeds MP3's etc to a DLink DSM-320 box connected to my home theatre system. I would now like to listen to these MP3's from my Palm. Shoutcast would not really be an option as it would not allow me to select the song that I wanted, just listen to whatever the server was pushing out. One benefit of the UPnP server is that you can create playlists that are recognised by the client end. I have WiFile installed and can listen to a track OK, but you do not have access to volumn control using WiFile and it will not play playlists. My be I am best to 'encourage' PTunes to build a plugin for there player

Years back I used NetFront + SlimServer + PocketTunes + Sony TH55 to do this. Fire NetFront and create the playlist on the server and then listen to it in PocketTunes as streaming MP3.

I have yet to try and figure out how to control my play lists from my TX. For the moment, though, I am happy. __________________ __________________________________________________ Palm VX / Handspring Visor Edge / PalmOne T\|E / Palm TX

Thanks for this and the other posts. So basically you use a web browser to access playlist on your PDA which then play though Pocket Tunes. This measn that I should have everthing I need. I have TwinkyVision media serevr running on my PC, Blazer and Pocket Tunes Delux loaded on my Palm T|X.

I am assuming that I need to create a webpage of the playlists and when I click on the links they will play in Pocket Tunes. Is this correct?
