I replaced the firmware with version 2, and rebuilt the music database manually, and now Emplode seems to work fine - as long as the Empeg is plugged into my serial port. When I connect my Empeg via a crossover cable, it is not detected by Emplode. Is there any special setup I need to do to on either the Empeg or on my PC for this crossover cable to work (so that I don't have to use my serial cable for large data transfers)?
