most of my setup info is in my sig. i have a jan 5 07 beta. perhaps i should repeat tho, that i am NOT saying this is a problem that affects everyone all the time, or one that even affects me all the time. right now, i can listen to the stream i love NP, and thats great. but as the problem has come and gone, (for weeks at a time in either case) nothing, NOTHING, has changed in my setup / environment, EXCEPT the changeover of my ISP from adelphia to comcast. winamp never failed over this time. SD did. it also seemed to be introduced with whatever ver change SD made when it sent streams directly to the SB, rather than to SS first. now, if the problem should come back, i will wire the SB just to end this line of speculation. till then, there's not much i can do, if i can't reproduce the problem myself. all i can say is there is what is possible, and what is probable. andy seems to agree that based on what i've told him in many previous posts that the wireless is NOT the culprit. and since the OP is wired, its certainly not the culprit in his case, which sounds a lot like what i had. but thx for the help. -mdw -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 w/SS 6.5.1 (beta!?) - Win XP Pro SP2 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31359 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
