[slim] Excessive buffering and tracks that wont play
I have a good set-up I think :-). I run a Squeezebox Boom and a Duet connected to my amplifier. I also have a QNAP Network Attached Storage device which has Squeezecentre installed and all my music on it. The music is stored in an iTunes Music folder. I back-up/copy my desktop iTunes folders once a week to the NAS. I have noticed a couple of problems however and was wondering if anyone has any pointers. 1) Some of the music does not play. Initially I thought it was DRM related as it seemed to be only albums I had purchased via iTunes but I have noticed it with other albums as well which I have ripped from CD's I own? 2) When playing the radio it interupts and buffers quite regularly. I have checked the network settings on the Wiki against my ISP's Netgear router and they seem fine but it still does it? I would appreciate anyone cleverer than me offer a few words of advice :-) -- RussT RussT's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22735 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69662 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Excessive buffering and tracks that wont play
I thought the the files which wouldnt play were only the ones I had purchased and downloaded from iTunes but now its both them and ones which I ripped via Itunes but others which were ripped via iTunes play so there does not seem to be any ryhme or reason. When I try to play one it comes up on the controller or iPeng on my iPhone and then just wont respond to the play normally when you select a track or album it automatically starts playing... Also the internet radio keeps buffering... and cutting out and I dont know why?

a mixture of M4a and MP3, yes all the files are in an Itunes Music folder on my NAS copied from my Itunes folder on my PC -- RussT RussT's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22735 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69662 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Whats the best network attached storage?
I have a Squeezebox Boom and a receiver attached to my Amplifier and I want to add network attached storage to put my music on, currently I use the MP3 Locker, I have seen the QNAP range from Ripcaster who install Squeezecenter for you but it seems quite expensive in comparison with say Amazon. On Amazon you can get a Buffalo NAS 1TB for £120 and the QNAP 320GB with Squeezecenter is £260. For someone not really technical is it hard to install Squeezecentre on any old NAS device?

Re: [slim] Whats the best network attached storage?
Thanks, To answer your questions Do you have to transcode or are you only using formats that are native to a squeezebox. - I dont think so all the music files are MP3 Do you use hirez material ( again transcoding ) - dont think so I have no idea what it is :-) Is the WEB-UI important for you (performance hog) - not nessacarily but I woudl need some form of easy to us UI Do you have a very large collection. - about 12-15GB Many players ? 2 currently but I can see more being added over time probably Squeezebox booms Music IP ?? Not sure what you mean by this? Do you use a lot of plugins, some of them use some cpu - I dont think so I mainly listen to Internet radio -- RussT RussT's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22735 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68567 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
