no idea on the http issue. what browser are you using?
I have tried IE9, Firefox and Chrome. No firewall issues that I can see. Everything else works, but when I click once, the little yellow dot shows where I clicked, then no more clicking allowed until refresh... and yet all other info/video is still streaming.
Meanwhile, if I have time, I will try again using my work PC to connect to my net-book at home.
Well I can confirm that it is NOT an issue with any of my PCs or my home network... I tried using the HTTP server on two PCs at work (and obviously a different LAN network
) with the exact same result, click, refresh, click. Same result from work to home PC via WAN (internet).
The only time I got it to work properly was on a dual screen PC using EZ-B on one screen and a browser on the other
Which mad me realize something else... EZ-B insists on being in the foreground... is that necessary?
