Info requested by Dan Sully: 1) Music (320K VBR MP3s ripped by the Slim ripping service) stored on a Linksys EFG250 Network Attached Storage device, hard-wired network connection via 1GBps network (switches, everything). It runs Linux but was designed to look like a Windows NT Server file-system - what it looks like to Mac or PC.
2) Server runs on a Mac Mini running original Jaguar (not updated to Tiger), 512MB RAM, fully patched up to current level. This is the same config I was running when, on an earlier release, some of these same tracks would play. 3) The music files are therefore a network share of an "SMB" filesystem, from the Mac point of view. Note that this same arrangement is what I've been using to run SlimServer for about the last five months, since before I got my SB2s (I have three). I definitely recall hearing some of the tracks that now won't play, due to this special-character issue, since I got the Mac to be a dedicated music server. For example "Scootcha-Booty" by Al Jarreau - which now won't play because of the dash in the name. -- MikeGilpin _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
