Maybe a plugin that integrates the SB remote with one of these: http://www.amazon.com/BreathKey-Breathalyzer-Keychain-Professional-Features/dp/B000EB5MJY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1317912192&sr=8-1
More seriously, you may want to try reducing the maximum number of tracks allowed in a playlist. I forget exactly where the setting is, but probably under Settings > Advanced > Performance. To be honest, I don't know what happens if you set the max to 200 tracks and then you try to load an artist's entire oeuvre of 800 tracks. Does it just take the first 200 and stop? Try it out when there's not a party going on and see if it helps. Alternatively, you could try using one of the other remote solutions, such as iPeng + iPhone (or iPod touch), which has a "party mode". The main intent of party mode is to prevent users from wiping out the current playlist when they mean to add new tracks to the current playlist, but it may help in your case as well. There may be something similar in the SB applications for Android devices. Finally, a more powerful server may help. SBS isn't really "buffering" anything in your situation, it's just building a new playlist. You need to make sure that you're not asking the server to build a playlist that is so big that it takes over the whole CPU and locks up the machine. For example, because the SB Touch has very limited CPU and RAM, it won't let you build a playlist with more than 100 tracks. Personally, I would try any of the proposed alternatives above before getting a new server just to deal with this issue, but it is something else that could help. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90756 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
