I had it set to 30 'upcoming songs' and <undefined> 'recently played songs' initially. I think I had a defined 'recently played songs' when I was experiencing the problem as well (not 100% positive though). Might the <undefined> be causing a problem? The "gap" seems to come not from NOT having a new song to go to, but the processing of adding a new song to the playlist. It doesn't start playing the next song on the playlist until it adds a new song to the bottom of the (in the above case) 30 item list. When I initially generate the Random Mix, there is about a 20 second delay before it shows up and starts playing and then in between every song, when it seems to be adding a new song to the end of the playlist, there is another 20 second delay. If I click 'stop adding songs' the delay disappears in between songs. The delay between songs was my impetus for this thread. If there was no delay, I wouldn't care as much about songs being added dynamically, but it was adversely affecting my listening experience. If you'd like me to try anything if there is something to troubleshoot, let me know. --G Specs: SlimServer Version: 6.2.0 - 4753 - Windows 2000 - EN - cp1252 Edit: Maybe I'm just underpowered?: 2.1Ghz AMD + 1.5 GB RAM -- coldslabs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ coldslabs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=450 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17937 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
