Hi

I've just install MusicBee and created a Library. However when I try to play anything I get the above error. What did I do wrong?

Something is wrong with your output device, obviously.

Preferences -> Player and determine where MusicBee is trying to redirect audio to.

Thanks, looks like this happens when I am using Remote Desktop.
Only when using Windows Remote Desktop? If so, try using TightVNC (free.) You'll need the server on the PC where Windows lives and the view on the other PC.
Download the latest MusicBee v3.5 or 3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.
