philippe_44, thanks for your explanations. Given your description, I suspected buffer overrun with the old AirTunes device AppleTV 1 and tried to reduce the buffer size. I reduced it to 1000ms and ... bam! Perfect playback on the old AppleTV. I did not push the binary search to define the exact value, but on my wired device, the point where playback breaks up is above 2800ms and below 2900ms. So now the AppleTV1 works again as a squeezebox. Mystery solved. Very cool! I hope this saves you from ploughing through the packet captures I sent you some days ago ;) 4 SB 3 Libratone Zipp Mini iPeng (iPhone + iPad) Squeezebox Server 7.9 (linux) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput, Triode's BBC iPlayer by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Server Power Control by Gordon Harris Smart Mix, Music Walk With Me, What Was That Tune? by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson AirPlay Bridge by philippe_44 WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105198
