1) I agree with the above two posts. The 2.4GHz ISM band is a very tough environment for music streaming, and getting worse over time. 2) But, for some posters here it used to work fine on previous versions of SC. 3) Since the SB system is designed to work using WiFi, it should be robust to bursts of interference shorter than a buffer length. 4) Since most users will apply these devices in a non-ideal WiFi environments, the performance of Squeezeboxen under such conditions should be a known quantity (i.e., tested as part of the release process for new versions of SC and new hardware products). 5) Bug 9393 is still open. "Buffer underun doesn't recover itself...", and may (just possibly) be related to this issue. 6) It is quite possible that nothing is wrong with the presently released hardware and software in respect of streaming performance under network congestion conditions, but there is also inconclusive evidence to the contrary, which makes it worth investigating.
As to people who want to draw conclusions already, based on the little we know right now... well, let's just say that depending on your profession, it might be a worrying trait. -- 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
