I have an SB server set up on an HTPC which is working out ok. However, I'd like to be able to play music from youtube or grooveshark on my laptop, which is on the same wireless network as the HTPC with the SB server, and have it streamed to my squeezebox. I know about the waveplugin but my laptop doesn't come with the stereo mix option (or equivalent). Is there a way around this?

Check the audio hardware type - sometimes the laptop vendor supplies a crippled driver but you may be able to get a compatible driver with "Stereo Mix" from another source. Using Google can help with this.
