It's not working very well for me. With both my PCM and Master mixer

I share the same experience since moving to 6.x. When browsing into a
large list (particularly, but not exclusively, the Music Folder), the
whole thing (including the music) pauses for a while. The longer the
list, the longer the pause.

Nobody has responded, perhaps because we're lacking some information.
What are the symptoms for which you seek a solution? Are the default
TCP/IP parameters not working? Have you determined that the TCP/IP
