With newer players (SB2 and up), SC can send the start request to the player ahead of time. That is, it tells the player to start at X, where X is some time in the future (default 100ms). For an SB1 it does not have this option, and SC sets a high-priority timer to send the start command at the relevant time, allowing for normal network latency. This mechanism is inevitably a bit hit-and-miss because SC is single-threaded and other activities can delay the firing of a timer. >From the log, I see two things: - The start command (strm-u) to the SBR only gets acknowledged after 448ms. - The start command to the SB1 gets sent after the SB2 has already started. Please check that you have undone all the changes on the Settings / Player / <player> / Synchronization page for each player. It could also be that SC is just busy at the start of a track. Do you have any plugins installed? Were you using random-play? I guess that this could be a problem with network saturation at the beginning of tracks. You could try increasing the 'Synchronization Start Delay' parameter (not sure of the exact name) under Settings / Network (or is that Settings / Advanced / Network?). -- awy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ awy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7480 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62152 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
