    XM Plugin not loading properly on SB3

    I do not have the Controller/Duet problem, but instead this plugin isn't operating on my SB3. I'm running Mac OS X Leopard and Squeezecenter 7.0. I was able to download the plugin, install the whole group of files on my Library/Applications Support/Squeezecenter/Plugins folder (maybe I should break the group up and only install certain folders? anyone know which ones?) and activate the plugin from the settings page on the web interface. I set it up with my XM radio ID and password from my XM online account. I can find the "XM-Plugin" on my SB3 under Internet Radio, but when I press Play or right arrow I get this "?" and nothing happens. Obviously it is not loading. Any idea how to correct this?

    Make sure you are using version 2 of the plugin. It was a bit confusing before as they were in different spots so I'm not sure if this is still the same now. Worth a check though.
    If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use is the rule.

    Thank you sir; got version 2 and discovered that once you load your XM favorites in SC for one player you cannot load them or play XM on any other player. One player at a time only. Since I got all my favorite stations to show up in my basement player, I am afraid to delete them and try to reload them in my living room player. Oh well at least partial success!

    Your welcome, maybe it has something to do with XM thinking that more than one person is using your account. Glad you got it working, I really like it and use it all the time.

    You're right, I read on another thread that XM limits users to one stream at a time, so I took a chance and deleted all the XM presets I had managed to load on my basement player. Then I reloaded them on the living room player, shut down and restarted SC, and SUCCESS! I can now stream any of the XM presets in my living room. But I will have to delete and reload again if I want to stream XM in any of my other rooms with SB3. That's OK now that I know it will work.
    Thanks again for your help!
