Speed
In Vista and Win7 you need to install it. Go to Programs and Features, then in Turn Windows features on/off select Telnet and it will get installed .

Thanks.
I'm not sure that telnet services are required for feedback to work, just used to check if feedback's working.

Hi Matt, there's no telnet server or client services available on this PC, do they need to be turned on for coverart to work?
The flac files that have no file duration feedback, actually have no file duration in WMC. Alll songs are listed as 0:00. So don't chase your tail on this one. I've found non-flac files with duration and they feedback fine.
No you do not need telnet enabled for the driver/plugin to work. It's simply a way of manually testing the commands. I'll try out a FLAC file later today. |

I suspect the problem is the URL is using the machine name rather than an IP address. If you paste the URL into Safari i'm guessing it doesn't work. Can you try replacing the machine name with the IP address of the Media Center? |

When posting, hit the "+ Additional Options..." link at the bottom left of the page. You can attach files there. |

The graph data source for now playing percentage is an empty bar, but graph data source for volume , tracks. - Caused by 3rd party flac plug-in
Button text for 'Now playing duration' stays 0:00. -Caused by 3rd party flac plug-in
Same for duration counter.
I did a bit of reading up on FLAC and Media Center. FLAC isn't natively supported and requires a 3rd party plugin. I found one called madFLAC, but a lot of people are posting saying it doesn't give track duration or allow you to FF/REW. So not much i can do about that sorry folks. |

It's possible, but i doubt it. I'll fire up my 64 bit laptop and see. So did the coverart display in Safari when you used the IP address? ie. http://1.2.3.4:5050/coverart.jpg ? |

Ok, managed to reproduce the issue. It looks like the webserver is telling the browser the coverart.jpg is a text file. Will look into it.
