RE: having trouble with html-based startup of songs

Also take note that you do not make an MD5sum of the file itself, but rather of its path. In other words we do not make a hash of the files data, just the path info. Also, make sure that you do not have the MP3Random directive set to "on", else you will have a song loaded randomly, despite your implicit direct link to a mp3 file. In other words, the random feature doens't afford you the ability to use media-on-demand, it must be turned off. Interface developers should not use the random feature.

Keep in mind that you can do an internal get request to the server (if
you are using mod_perl) to grab the xml list of what is in the server.
User XML::RSS from CPAN to decipher it.
