 How does it work when using iPeng as a player (do you do that)? If you
 are using iPeng as a player: could you check whether changing the buffer
 size has any effect (in iPeng's Bitrate Limiting menu)?

I don't use the iPeng as a player, I didn't purchase that feature. 
Tidal's app on the iPad or iPhone both work fine like my Windows box..
It's just the VB using ickstream that doesn't work reliably.  I also
have a Squeezebox touch, and that has the same stuttering issue.

 How is the Vortexbox connected to your local network?  Ethernet I
 assume.  Ethernet cable or something like ethernet over powerline?

Yes, 100M Ethernet from a Netgear R7000 Router.  I've also tried a 1 GB
Ethernet card in that PC and swapped CAT 5 cables...no change in
performance.

 What exactly are the problems you are seeing?

Intermittently the playback from Tidal studders; blank gaps of no sound
ranging from just a second to several seconds.  Sometimes it works,
other times it's unlistenable.  The odd part is that I can play the same
selection form Tidal on my Windows PC immediately following my
Vortexbox/Squeezebox PC being unable to do it.  My download speed is
typically just under 10 mbps, upload is just under 3 mbps, ping is @ 6
ms when running tests.  I am also a iPeng user  willing to take log
snapshots  send on for problem determination.  Thanks..

Re: [slim] Announcement - ickStream open beta release on Squeezebox !

2015-01-12 Thread sully1801

I'm having trouble with my vortexbox playback when using the
ickstream/tidal plugin. I've tried using the proxied server and direct
streaming, tried increasing the radio station buffer, but nothing seems
to help. I can stream Tidal thru my Windows 8.1 machine without issues,
so I know my network has sufficient bandwidth. The PC I'm running is a 5
year old Dell with a 2.6GHz processor  4 GB of Memory, V2.3 Vorexbox
with all the latest updates. Anyone have any ideas?
