    Tried the settings "Unlimited bit stream" while playing a wave file. The
    squeezebox does not play "No increment of the elapsed time" even though the
    server indicates that the player is on and the play function is operable

    still dead!!!

    can I force a firmware upgrade?

    If you are not playing mp3 files then yes you need LAME as the server
    converts to MP3 to stream to your player. LAME is an audio codec and you
    can google it and find out where to download the latest version, you will
    need to throw it on your windows 2000 machine and then tell the server
    settings where it is located.

    To prove your box works you can set the bitrate limit on your player to "no
    limit" (player settings page) and then play the .wav file it should play
    just fine.

    I'm using Win 2000 sp4. I notice that the elapsed time does not index on
    the Squeezebox. The settings in the server "Bit stream" show the following

    Note: You do not appear to have LAME installed. SlimServer will need the
    LAME MP3 encoder installed on your system to do conversion to MP3. You can
    find out more about LAME here.)

    I don't know what LAME is or if I need it.

    still no sound...

    Firewall turned on now on your PC? What OS are you using? Linux installs
    Ipchains by default, Windows might or might not install the built in XP
    firewall depending on which service pack you have loaded.

    I upgraded my pc. My squeezebox and slim server indicate that the device is
    playing but I don't hear anything. What am I doing wrong?

    What version of SlimServer are you using now, and what version were you
    using previously?

    What firmware version is currently installed on your Squeezebox?

    It could be a fw version mismatch between the server and the
    Squeezebox...
