My thinking is powered because the Touch is possibly struggling to provide the power to drive the USB connection in the speakers, and is rebooting as a result. The stock PSU is adequate to power the Touch, but not necessarily other devices. I could be completely wide of the mark - I have been before and doubtless will be again :) Chris :) Stratmangler's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20387 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101479 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

There is also something iffy with USB drivers on many ARM platform hence the HUB will assist . I would try a powered one . Not sure that unpowered ones have the chipset you want .

I'm sorry to say...even with a powered hub; it seems to be doing the same thing. :confused: CDLehner's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21868 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101479 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Announce: Enhanced Digital Output app - USB Dac and 192k Digital Ouput
So I finally joined the asynchronous USB club! Figured I would just plug everything in and then bliss out to the world of Super Hi Rez! And then there are things called real world issues right? I'm learning as I go, but I still am a relative moron when it comes to the details of all of this. I'm getting signal dropouts somewhere in the chain and I'm not sure if it's the EDO that's the issue, or my wifi network, or something else. My new NAD D 1050 DAC is not on the current supported list for EDO, so someone here might quickly tell me that until its been proven to work, all bets are off. The 1050 requires a software driver to be installed on PCs using USB, but it's plug and play for Mac. Mine is connected to my SBT of course. So there's that. When I send music to my new DAC directly from my Macbook Pro, via USB, I have no problems, so I know it's not the source files. I used to play these 192 files with no issue wirelessly to my SBTPeachtree Nova and had no problems then either, even with 192. The older Nova that I had hooked up maxed at 24/96, and was not asynchronous so I was going from the Nova to the SBT via coax and also optical. I guess it was just downsampling at the Nova. But the 192 files got wirelessly to my SBT without any apparent problems, leading me to believe that this isn't a wifi issue. Does that make sense so far?? I went through my SBT settings last night and did some kind of a kernel update. I'm at work right now so I don't have the menu in front of me. I honestly have no freaking clue what a kernel even is! I got these similar inconsistent dropouts before and after the update. And just an aside, the difference in sound between the Peachtree Nova's older DAC and this NAD is significant. Put a big fat grin on my face immediately! The Nova is an integrated DAC/amp, but I was just using it as a dedicated DAC fixed output to my Anthem 225 integrated. So that's my main issue at the moment. Hoping something I said will lead to a reasonably likely solution to these dropouts. I have other questions about the differences in playing 192 files through USB vs Coax vs Toslink that can come later. I think I'm right that you get the best chance of low jitter if you take advantage of the asynchronous USB. Not sure what the variables are if you chose to go out of the SBT another way. I'm guessing that you're not getting the best connection possible---in other words---if you're output device has USB, then use USB, right?? Any help would be appreciated!! tdgruen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94512 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

[SlimDevices: Touch] Spotify and the Squeezebox are NOT playing well together.....
I downloaded and installed Triode's app. All seemed to be going well. But now. 2 examples. the other day, I played the new CD by Abdullah Ibrahim (Mukasa). It played with NO problems. NOW, when I try to play it AGAIN, it tells me that 'this track is not available in your region'. Um, yes, it IS! Or WAS. TONIGHT...I tried to play Steely Dan's 'Aja'. I tried BOTH listings on the Squeezebox menu for the album. BOTH of them told me 'this track is not available in your region'. I KNOW better than that. So how do I fix the problem? The above are only the 2 most recent examples!
