David68, The SB3 does not have the processing power to decompress a 96KHz FLAC file. If you transcode to FLAC compression level 0 in Slimserver, the stuttering should stop.
Without stuttering, you will still have a problem - the SB3 does not filter the stream, nor down-sample from 96KHz to 48Khz, it merely decimates. I recommend you down-sample any 96KHz FLAC files you download from Linn Records to 48KHz using Audacity or dBpowerAMP before streaming them to the SB3. -Ron -- Ron F. *Squeezebox setup:* wireless SB3 -> CI Audio VDA.2 DAC + VAC.1 PSU *Main rig:* NAD 7600 + NAD 2600A -> Phase Tech PC-6.5 speakers *Headphone rig:* Headroom Max -> Sennheiser 650s *Music Server:* Nano-ITX computer running SlimCD + 750 GByte HDD -> Netgear wireless router *Other stuff:* NAD C542 CDP, NAD 6300 Tape, Monster 5100 Power conditioner, Outlaw Audio cables ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ron F.'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5616 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36449 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
