Re: [slim] Sony STR-DN1080 via DLNA with LMS?
I ordered the parts and built a picoreplayer with touchscreen. It works great, no problems, and supports 192 kHz/24-bit via HDMI... Thanks for the help and suggestions everyone!

The biggest problem is that if you put the unit into standby mode it does not reconnect to LMS. Since the recent firmware update it fails to play complete tracks and stops playing when there is around 15 seconds remaining...

[slim] Sony STR-DN1080 via DLNA with LMS?
Hello, A while ago my Squeezebox bit the dust and I replaced it with an Onkyo TX-8270 receiver. I have had a lot of problems with the Onkyo connecting to LMMS via DLNA. Most recently a firmware upgrade "broke" the receiver as it will no longer stream complete tracks from LMS, just the beginning of each track. :mad: Anyway, I'm looking to replace the Onkyo TX-8270 receiver with a Sony STR-DN1080. Can anyone confirm if this unit works with LMS via DLNA please? Thanks!

I selected each skin, clicked on Save Settings, then refreshed the browser. This worked fine for each skin until I selected the Nokia770 one. On IE 7.0 the page does not display correctly, the page is garbled and hence the page navigation is unusable. It took a while to figure out how to get to the interface settings page, I could select a different skin but there is a problem The Nokia770 skin disables the scroll bars within the browser and the page is too large to fit the browser window, so you cannot sroll down to the Save Settings button to change the skin. On a Mac running OS X 10.5.4 and Safari 3.1.2, the Web interface loads and the Nokia770 skin displays correctly. However, when I navigate to the interface settings page, select a different skin and click on Save Settings, hey presto! The page refreshes with the Nokia770 skin each time. So I'm stuck with this skin. Is anyone else experiencing this issue (SqueezeCenter Version: 7.1 - 22170 on Debian Etch).

Re: [slim] Is there a way to configure the buffer on the Transporter ?
Hello, Thank you for the replies. Today I finally managed to get SlimServer 6.5.1 running on Windows Vista, and now I cannot reproduce the problem. The issue I was having looks the same as that mentioned in bug report 4715, but with WAVE instead of FLAC. Ironically, yesterday I converted one of the whole album WAVE files to FLAC, modified the cue sheet for the new file, and it played flawlessly. Cross fade and synchronization were and still are disabled, and I'm not transcoding file formats. I can only assume that 6.5.1, or more likely, the accompanying firmware upgrade to version 27 for the Transporter, fixed the problem I'll post again if I notice any further issues like this.

[slim] Is there a way to configure the buffer on the Transporter ?
Is there a way to configure the behaviour of the buffering on the Transporter ? Here is the reason I'm asking... All of my CDs have been ripped to WAVE audio (plus cue sheet). A lot of these albums are one continuous piece of music, so there are no audible gaps between the tracks. When the transporter plays these albums, the buffer empties as the track comes to an end and then fills again as it picks up the next track. However, I can hear audible glitches as the tracks change from one to the next (and I'm fairly certain that it is not the .WAV file at fault). So, would it be possible to modify this situation so that the buffer is constant (rather than emptying/filling again as the tracks change) ?
