Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Data Rate Kbps
Assuming you are testing to a classic player then I think the difference is likely to be some changes to the firmware which slowed down the maximum rate that network test would run at. So I agree its not as accurate now as it used to be (unfortunately). In contrast network test on squeezeplay players should be more accurate in recent builds. -- Triode Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93879 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

Its about 18feet away in the other room and is almost line of sight. Funny thing is I have never managed to get more than 85% before at 3000kbps. LMS if I remember the max I can select via the (duet handset) is 1500kbps whats with that anyway, has the server been scaled down? The only reason I tried the tests was because on a hi rez 24bit 1200kbps album through LMS it had this "stuttery" not quite skipping thing that was happening. I'm going to try this album later on squeezebox server but now for some reason I can't seem to get that working, I'll re-install it and try again. -- mashley mashley's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36549 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93879 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

I don't think the test can be considered accurate at higher rates any more :-/ just try with the highest possible rate the player can accept in transporter case 24/96 sent as WAV/PCM if that works you are ok this is almost 3k btw -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Data Rate Kbps
I'd also make sure that only one instance of SB server is running for each test. Verify through system processes that you don't have multiple SB services running. I'd also disable the UPnP/DLNA portion of LMS for a more accurate test/comparison, if that might be causing an issue. What are you trying to accomplish by comparing the two server versions? -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93879 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Data Rate Kbps
Still confusing, how are you running the network when you get 3000Kps? A lot of factors are in play here. Where is the LMS server located from the Transporter? How far is your wireless router from the Transporter and Server? A network test as I understand it, is the systems ability to stream music at different Kps rate (someone chime in if I have it wrong), so your 3000Kps vs. 35% is throwing everyone off. Normally the percent repercent the signal strengh of the wireless signal. And at 35% is very low and could cause issues streaming Flac files or other Hi res music. -- Recoveryone Slim Device Transporter wirelessly connected Pioneer Elite VSX-81TX Optimus LS3's 2nd SqueezeBox 3 Wirelessly connected (Bedroom) Pioneer VSX 520K Optimus LX5's 3rd SqueezeBox 3 Wirelessly connected (MediaRoom) Pioneer VSX 510 Optimus LX5's 4th Squeezebox 3 Wirelessly connected (livingroom) Integra ADM 2.1 Teac MKII EQ Fluance SX Server (In garage) running on P4 3.0 GHz 2 gig ram Windows XP (Sp3) 350 Xternal gigHD Verizon Fios wireless router w/HG antana Recoveryone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9205 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93879 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

If I run Squeezebox Server 7.5.1 I get on my Transporter 100% at 3000Kbps on the network test.
