TIVO Desktop Universal Audio Plug-in and TIVO Publisher for WHS Add-in

Question
-
Hi! I have installed the TIVO Publisher for WHS Add-in and it works fine for me on my WHS but I have most of my audio ripped as WMA which works fine from my XP PC which is running the TIVO Desktop Universal Audio Plug-in but doesn't when attempting to play from my WHS.
Has anyone figured out a way to play WMAs from TIVO Publisher for WHS Add-in? I tried to install the Universal audio Plug-in on my WHS but that didn't do it for me. Must have done something wrong?!?
Any direction would be appreciated! Thanks!

This is exactly the question I have. The combination of WHS and TiVo is awesome, but it greatly reduces the usefulness of the Publisher add-in if I can't get my WMA files to play through the TiVo interface. Speaking for myself, I think this functionality would be something that could be sold for a nominal fee (say $10) along with Publisher for TiVo.Monday, January 7, 2008 2:41 PM

I agree this would be a great feature. This is the only thing that is keeping me from using this add-in currently.Monday, January 7, 2008 4:02 PM

Anyone? Any ideas? I know I am not the only one out there using WMA files instead of MP3s? Or am I?
I suppose I can just re-rip all my music to MP3 - ugh.
Help!

That's what I did. Not specifically for streaming from WHS but when I bought a new PC and lost most of the music that I purchased from online stores like Walmart because DRM would not port I decided never again would DRM steal from me. So WMA is my delimeter solely to keep track of what I have not converted to MP3. When I buy anything online I have to burn it and then rip it back as MP3. Talk about a pain.Sunday, January 20, 2008 8:51 PM

Hi guys,
I've had a few people want WMA file support. So, version 1.2 is coming this week and it supports WMA audio.
Thanks,
