I have a Squeezebox (1st version) that suffers from random music dropouts of many seconds. It's over WiFi, and I've always blamed the access point. It's not at all reproducable, I'm afraid - there are times when the buffer display just goes to empty and the music stops.
I recently tried running the slimserver with a nice of -4, which seems to help a lot. I didn't notice the buffer going to empty. But I still got dropouts ... and when I looked, the display was frozen, not responding to the IR remote at all. I suppose it could still be the WiFi freezing - are the remote commands handled by the box or the server? - but I also witnessed a fair number of player reboots when it got bad. It would reboot, try to get to the access point, make it to 10 in the countdown and reboot again... Sigh. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
