I am not sure what a networking issue is. 
I uninstalled and I guess it is the same thing. I was pretty certain I
had nothing at all with 2.0, so I had some hope of getting this
resolved seeing as how I was getting bits and pieces.

Thanks for your input.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] soundcheck's Touch Toolbox 3.0

2011-11-17 Thread mjock3

I am enjoying the TT 3.0. It is very nice. Thanks Klaus!!

I have a question, when running 2.0 I was not able to do 96/24 res
files through my DAC (Bel Canto DAC 2.0) through coax. I just tried it
again today and I am getting it intermittently. A second or 2 and then
drop out and again, back and forth. I was told by Bel Canto that I
should be able to play 96/24 pcm files. Can anyone offer some advice on
what tweaks may make this work for me?

Thanks,

Mark

A hard rest was recommended by Soundcheck before installing 3.0. Which
should clear Dynobots mods.

His first name is Ed, goes by Dynobot. Would you mind telling me what
version of firmware you are using?

Thanks,

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] New Squeezebox Touch Mod

2011-10-08 Thread mjock3

Yes, I understand. But here is my problem, after doing the rcS file
change something went wrong and I had to do a factory reset. After
doing the factory reset, I reinstalled TT 2.0, then went about 
plugging in the commands from Dynobot's mods. When doing this I could
not hear the differences that were so obvious the first time I put them
in line by line.

I am not even trying the rcS file modification at this point as there
is no reason to.

Something changed in the reset that makes the settings inaudible. I did
check to and verfiy the changes with the:   
ps -eLo pid,cls,rtprio,pri,nice,cmd | grep -i "irq"
command. And according to it the changes have taken place.

Have you heard the changes? What firmware version are you using?

Thanks,

Mark

Is there no one willing to give me a hand on this? Could it be my
firmware updated? Is anyone using 7.6.1 r9486 and hearing changes on
the fly with the spdif settings?

After making these changes are you still able to modify spdif on the
fly as with Dynobot's mods? 

Yesterday before modding the rcS file I could hear changes on the fly,
today after changing the rcS file and rebooting I can not hear the on
the fly. Did I do something wrong maybe?

Thanks
