Maybe this may be helpful: I can tell you (from peeking at the logs from 
my stream, http://orange.neostreams.info:12978/ ) that Mac (and probably 
Linux) listeners use FMOD 3.75 whereas most users (the Windows ones) use 
FMOD 3.74.  I have no idea why that is.


Which operating system are you useing Tim't?
