I use FLAC for 95% of my music collection, and I use a wireless connection for the link to the SB3 client. I get 100% solid performance, and have never seen a rebuffering message on FLAC playback (occasionally with internet radio, but that is understandable). This is not to say you aren't having problems, because clearly you are, but I can also assert that under different conditions 7.3.3 can perform flawlessly. I have noticed an increased number of rebuffering complaints in these forums, though, so we have to entertain the possibility that something is going on. * Although your connection is wired, it may still be worth doing some throughput tests from the SB3 client (Settings ==> Information ==> Network test.) A bad router could still screw up a wired connection. * Try swapping out for a different server hardware, even though you don't suspect the ReadyNas. Having a fresh install on different hardware would eliminate quite a number of variables. * Try a factory reset of the SB3 in question. * Try using software clients (Squeezeplay, Squeezeslave, Softsqueeze) instead of hardware ones just to eliminate the SB3 as a source of trouble. If you would do all the above, you would have eliminated in turn the source, the connection and the client and I am quite convinced that one of these will cause the problem to vanish. If so, you will know a great deal more about where to look to finally solve the issue. -- dsdreamer ---------------------- "Dreamer, easy in the chair that really fits you..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dsdreamer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12588 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65719 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
