I did initially have a problem getting the Touch to upgrade to 7.8 but it eventually caught to LMS a few days ago. I also had a problem when scrolling through the Touch menu. I could feel it progressively slowing down until it would freeze up completely. I would then have to pull the power and wait for it to resume. This has always happened while running EDO + TT3.0 and a few other suggested tweaks. I can't remember if I actually tried EDO by itself as I read that sounded a bit thin. My network should be OK as I'm able to stream 1080p without issues. PC is a quad core Q9550 with 4gb RAM and plenty of free hard drive space. I definitely wasn't in random mode either. What is really strange is that when I played the album from the beginning it would always jump to track 2 and the cursor would not budge when clicking on any other track. I think I'm going to flush TT3.0 AGAIN and give EDO by itself a try. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Turnandcough's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9436 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94512 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
