Re: my setup seems to have a slim connector problem.

Stuart,

I removed the dlls from the system32 directory, I still get the same.

In my setup I am using HomeSeer and Micheal's mcsmusic plugin to load
a playlist, a play list is built one per artist for all album's, all
tracks. Playlist are generated by mcsmusic and stored on slimsever.
Mcsmusic does query for the playlist contents after slim is instructed
to load it.

I found what I hope is a new clue. I got this error quickly one time
right after restarting slimconnector ( it broke first try ). Seeing
This made me pay attention to it the next time it broke. I am getting
this error on sofar it seems consistantly just before now playing
croaks. I will post a snippet , see what you think. If you want to see
more of them I will email some text files to you.
