Re: [slim] Listening breaks up when copying large files

Thanks everyone ... I guess I had been hoping there was a way to prioritise the streamed music over the file transfer, but it looks like there isn't. I don't think it is a CPU / disk problem. Will probably just have to live with it. However two thoughts come to mind: 1) I might upgrade the server

Hello everyone, I wonder if someone could help me please. My Squeezcenter is hardwired by a crossover cable to my Squeezebox 3. Everything has been working fine for ages but last night I was going through the network setup on the Squeezebox itself when it said it "couldn't find the DHCP server"
