Does anybody know of a way to have media player play files on a remote PC as if they were installed locally?
I have my CD collection on my PC and I'd like to be able to play music from this using my XDAIIs using Wifi.
I've managed to see the files on the PC from the XDAIIs but clicking on them will not play them. However, if I create a shortcut to the file in question, and click on it, the track will play!
Unfortunately, if I create a second shortcut in the same folder to another file on the PC, media player doesn't play it automatically. I have to click on each shortcut that I wish to play.
You can use iTunes to do this, but you have to have WM2003, because I could no longer get it to work when I upgraded to WM5.0. It is called wifitunes, and it is still in alpha testing, but don't let that scare you, because it works well for me. Here is a link:

And of course you have to have iTunes installed on your pc (free from apple).
Let me know if this works for you!
I use resco file explorer and simply map the shared drive on my desktop to my SX66. I use TCPMP and can play avi, mpeg, mp3, wav etc on my SX66 over my wifi with no problems.
Thanks,
I tried WiFiTunes but I couldn't get it to work. Putting iTunes on the PC also required me to convert the track from WMA lossless to the Apple format which I wasn't keen to do but thanks for the suggestion.
I've downloaded a trial copy of resco file explorer, it looks like a good product to have irrespective of whether it helped with this particular issue. Used with TCPMP it does exactly what I want.
The only downside is that you have to create playlists because it doesn't organise the content into album, artist and genre lists in the same way that WMP10 does.
As I have nearly 3000 tracks it's going to take me some time to create the playlists but it's something to keep me out of mischief for a while!
Thanks for your help
Hi!
I’ve been searching for a Rss Reader and am now testing Egress. Since I also use Google Reader, I would like to export those feeds and import them to Egress.
The problem is that when exporting from Google Reader the generated file is .XML, and Egress only imports .OPML files.
So, here’s the question:
How can I convert a .XML file to a .OPML file?
Or is there any other way of importing feeds from Google Reader to Egress?
Regards!
I imported a GPX file into Locus application.
What can I do now with this? Yes, I can see a track from GPX file on map. But - is there any way to use guiding?

Hi,
I noticed as you cannot add any mp3/aac file into GT2: I tried to add a podcast (a mp3 file about 100mb) but Huawei Health app is unable to find that kind of files (I think because its size, right?)
Is there anyway to add files by other way than Health app in order to can include whatever mp3 you want?
Thanks.
