Why can I not listen to streamed stations that I can hear on my PC but not
through my stereo. Why only pay stations like 365 live?

WMC currently only shares content that is stored locally on the PC. D-
Link and others have added a seperate capability into their hardware to
access content off the internet. The decision what internet content to
enable and share is entirely up to the hardaware manufacturers
themselves. Windows Media Connect isn't involved in any way. I'd
recommend that you send your comments to D-Link.

Dear Alan,

I appreciate the assistance. My disappointment is that the DSM-320 does not
replicate WMC to the extent that I thought it would. This device falls far
short of expectations. For example I have a group of Quick TIme video files
which also cannot be viewed on my TV through the device.

I can play streaming radio stations via DSM-320. You need to add the link to
the station in a Playlist.

Kirk -

How exactly do you add the Windows Media streaming radio links into a
DSM-320 playlist? I'm trying to get it to work without success -

Thanks in advance -

Scotty
