Hey, this is why I like making suggestions—I'm completely unencumbered by knowledge of how to do anything.  ;D

I believe nostra has made a similar comment about Firebird's sorting/handling of special characters, so I suspect not.

Knighted:
thanks for the great add-on.
seems to work great with the 64-bit version of IE.  When using the 32 bit version it crashes.  My OS is the 64 bit version of vista.
I also tried installing xbmc (windows version) http://xbmc.org to try to use it under that, but it wouldn't work.   I enabled the UPnP client in the options, and then added the upnp source in the video options.  upnp://192.168.1.100:8008, but with that it'd only browse the partition where xmbc and kroozbox were installed.  Chances are I'm just not doing it right.  Can anyone else get it working with xbmc?

Nono:
I am unsure of what you want to accomplish but is there really such a thing as a URL with this form ? :
upnp://192.168.1.100:8008. If this URL relates to Kroozbox it would be on http://192.168.1.100:8008


Sorry cannot help you more (i am not familiar enough with xmbmc).

So am I. It's a challenge to get my mind around what these things do and how they might be used. So I thought it might be illuminating to "try to use it under" XBMC. I wasn't able to get it working—nor was I able to understand how it might "work." Isn't the purpose of Kroozbox the same as XBMC? I could understand the idea of XBMC having a plugin to do the same thing as Kroozbox—pull data from a PVD database—but not Kroozbox "running under" XBMC.

I wonder if this is the same as me thinking Kroozbox might run (under, with?) VLC media player. Both XBMC and VLC will run web servers. But I think in both cases the only purpose is to allow them to receive remote commands—their existence should not imply any capability beyond this.

Does this make sense, or am I underestimating what something like XBMC should be able to do with a UPnP service? ???

Nono:
Update to version 1.1a done at:
