Apologies if this has already been discussed before. I received my Duet today and have set the controller up to control an existing SB3. The SB3 has a wireless connection to a Vista PC running SC 7.0.1 with a wired connection to a NAS where the media files are stored. I am very happy with the controller and all aspects of performance - with one exception, are very good.
When I select an album from New Music that I havent previously selected, it can typically take 10 seconds from selecting the album (i.e. clicking the centre select button with the album thumbnail selected) to seeing the track listing. With albums that have a larger number of tracks i.e classical, the track listing is never actually displayed (am guessing some sort of timeout is occuring after 1-2 mins). From an unscientific check, it seems to take about 1 second per track before the track listing is displayed. From this, I am guessing this is due to the controller generating/fetching a thumbnail for each track. Once an album has previously been viewed using the controller, the track listing will display in 1-2 seconds. When using the SC browser interface, this is how long it takes to view the tracks for any album - whether previously accessed from music library or not. I had previously noticed a similar issue with the SC7 interface if artwork is enabled for track listings (i.e. in the now playing/playlist pane); displaying the album thumbnail for every track results in the SC7 UI being unresponsive and causes the music playback (on the SB3) to stutter, if for example you choose to play all tracks from an album. I have therefore disabled artwork for each track, however, I am guessing that this setting isnt picked up the controller? -- EliteAV ------------------------------------------------------------------------ EliteAV's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45121 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
