I have three computers (IP addresses--Desktop--192.168.0.102; laptop --192.168.0.103; serverâ€â€192.168.0.105) networked together and use SlimRoku 1.6b with my HD1000 RevB. When I open SlimRoku it displays in the lower left corner "SlimServer (v6.5.4) 192.168.0.102". The problem is, the server computer running slimserver where I have all my music has an IP address 192.168.0.105, so consequently there are no music files displayed in SlimRoku. At the time, I wasn’t even running Slimserver on my desktop that’s IP address is 192.168.0.102. I was playing around with some things and after a Roku reboot it then displayed 192.168.0.105 in SlimRoku and then all music files where displayed and all worked well. At next reboot, it was back to displaying 192.168.0.102 and again no music files. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Fist make sure the SlimServer you are launching is the one you are working with (i.e. Make sure that you are not woking on a .roku (exe) file in a different folder then the one you are lauching from).
Second, did you add a switch to the launch script that tells what the IP address of the server is?
Here is a normal slimroku.roku file
#!/bin/sh
#
# SlimRoku.app [SlimServerIP] [-options]
#
# If no IP address is specified, SlimRoku will attempt to locate the server.
#
SXPATH=`echo "$0" | sed 's/\/SlimRoku.roku$//'`
"$SXPATH/SlimRoku.app"
Here is one with the screen saver disabled
#!/bin/sh
#
# SlimRoku.app [SlimServerIP] [-options]
#
# If no IP address is specified, SlimRoku will attempt to locate the server.
#
SXPATH=`echo "$0" | sed 's/\/SlimRoku.roku$//'`
"$SXPATH/SlimRoku.app" -Screensaver=0
here is one with the screen saver disabled and being told what IP the server is on.
#!/bin/sh
#
# SlimRoku.app [SlimServerIP] [-options]
#
# If no IP address is specified, SlimRoku will attempt to locate the server.
#
SXPATH=`echo "$0" | sed 's/\/SlimRoku.roku$//'`
"$SXPATH/SlimRoku.app" 192.168.1.105 -Screensaver=0
See what you have, you may have the wrong IP address hard coded, if not, try to force it to the 105 one.
Try this filebuiler if you need to.

make sure you check the box on the left too (as well as fill in the IP address.
If you are going to manualy edit, use Note Pad and not Word Pad (or use VI on the photobridge if you are darning)
Let us know, hope this helps, Matt
