Hi Ludvik:  I saw your script earlier but was away with family and 
hadn't tried it.  I'm seeing

http://192.168.0.5:6544/Content/GetMusic?Id=379

http://192.168.0.5:6544/Content/GetMusic?Id=380

http://192.168.0.5:6544/Content/GetMusic?Id=378

with plausible other information, but pasting them into Firefox gives 
nothing.  You suggest above that the port should be 6543.  Trying that 
gives a 'Connecting' message - and still nothing.

Then I tried pointing it at the 0.24.3 box:

http://192.168.0.9:6544/Myth/GetMusic?Id=1521

The screen went dark and clicking it produced an error message that I 
don't have an mp3 decoder plugin.  So it seems to have found something 
that could be the right file there.

Konqueror suggested opening it with vlc, and it plays.  Trying the same 
with the 0.27.3 urls tells me that the file or folder does not exist.

Thanks for the suggestion.
