Hi Sean,
Thank you very much for the reply.
The Squeezebox just displayed the message Stop.
No error messages were seen in the computer's event log at the time
that the Squeezebox stopped playing the audio. Pressing Play on the
Squeezebox resulted in the audio resuming from the start of the file.
Pressing Squeezebox fast forward or rewind with a large FLAC file
results in a re-start of the audio from the beginning of the file. The
functionality works properly with SoftSqueeze.
