Thanks Dale, very kind of you to look into this for me. I actually want to stream from (listen to internet radio), not stream to a server. Previous versions of vlc had a Service Discovery option which would tune in to shoutcast/icecast servers to list and listen to their streams. This has now been removed. A really good feature was that you could search for music of your liking by genre and different servers would show up to allow you to connect and listen. -- Regards, Mick
