i forgot to mention, (duh)... i also seem to recall that i could hear a difference of the -q 9 level vs higher ones via SC. now, i may be conflating things, but generally the rule as i recall seemed to be:
anything that went higher from 5 might stutter as the load on the server increased, and it also couldn't serve it then fast enough, whereas anything at 9, (and maybe 7 / 8) just didn't sound very nice. something of a distant memory and subjective. nearly all my files are CBR 256 mp3s (-q 1 jstereo) to begin with, so that might explain the results a bit as well. -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 (primary) / SBR (secondary) / SBC - w/SC 7.3b - Win XP Pro SP3 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - D-Link DIR-655 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55442 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
