Hi
I installed jamroom, but have a problem trying to download a mp3 file.
The download link do the same thing as the play link : Both open my Windows Media Player and start playing the mp3.
No way to save it in my PC directly from the download hifi or lofi link within the generated html

May be a problem with my own PC configuration, but How to fix this?

Anyway, thanks to Brian for this piece of miracle

This is the default behaviour for Windows Media Player - it is trying to "help" you by assuming you want to listen to the song. Just click on "File" and "Save As" while the song is streaming and should be able to save it to your hard drive...

I HIGHLY recommend downloading WInamp 2.91 to play your MP3's - it's behaviour is much more predictable than Windows Media Player... check out the "Recommended" link for a link to Winamp 2.91 - DO NOT get winamp 3.0 as it has almost as many problems as Windows Media Player..

hope this helps!

- Brian
