Okay, all, I've added a video on what the X-Fi looks after it works to the page. Has anyone that's tried this not gotten it to work?


it doesn't show up when I go to the page, just a big black spot where it should be.

Try refreshing. It's a Viddler video so it should be fine. If it's not that, i posted links at the bottom of the page to the YouTube one.

Sweet! I was really hoping there would be some way for us to do something like this... And it looks like you've found out how, brahma.

I'm installing TVersity now.

Edit: Now if I could just find a wall charger that works with the X-Fi... Unlimited streaming, baby.

I wonder if the new firmware update fixes the issues I've had with chargers? I'll have to test it again later...

When you add the video directory, it will take a while to get all the files in it (like WMP). The MLB TV must be added as 'Internet Video', and then change the settings to 'Transcode when needed'

Please forgive my ignorance in these matters but I'm trying to use tversity to allow me to stream aduio from Yahoo!music, napster, and rapsody to the zen x-fi.

I've installed tversity, but am confused about how to set it up for these services.
This is where i'm at:
When I click on the "+", I get several edit boxes. The top most box labeled Type I put in "Internet Audio".
I'm confused as to what the audio URL should be for any of these music services. Also, what tags are appropriate here.

I'm not sure if tversity is install correctly since when ever I try to pull up the help topics for URL tagging - I get "Unable to make database connection"

Does any one know how to do this? It would be great if this could work.

Thank you
Naim

I haven't gotten that far enough to know if it will work or not. I'm still a bit confused as to what I'm doing and how to set it up in the add item dialog box.
I think I need some help!

You need to find a url of which to stream. I don't know how you can it in rhapsody (i don't think you can due to licenses), but the streams are very easy to find on sites like Live365.com, Shoutcast.com, and Icecast.com.

I have a question: Is it possible to stream webradios (which you personally choose from local radios for example), not only through the home wifi newtwork, but also through wifi spots in public places for example?
