Hi,
Out of interest I downloaded a couple of tracks from Linn Records last
night - both FLAC files at their 24bit Studio Master quality. As
regards bitrates, one reports as being 1761kbps and the other
2701kbps.
With my SB3 connected wirelessly (router about 6 metres away in the
next room with
The faster bitrate is really pushing to the limits of what 802.11g can
do.
I tested once 24bit/96kHz flac and had the same problem over wireless
(router has even directional high-gain antenna). Since SB3 can not
really do 96kHz anyway why not downsample them to 48kHz, they work just
fine over
I play lots of 24bit/96kHz flacs (I use Transporter) with no problems at
all.
My router is a 4 years old 3COM office connect.
Maybe Trasporter v. SB3 ?

Must be SB3 then, I wrote bollocks (10x error in speed what 802.11g can
do).

David68,
The SB3 does not have the processing power to decompress a 96KHz FLAC
file. If you transcode to FLAC compression level 0 in Slimserver, the
stuttering should stop.
Without stuttering, you will still have a problem - the SB3 does not
filter the stream, nor down-sample from 96KHz to
Thanks for the responses. I'm on a steep learning curve at present so
much appreciated.
I looked at the properties of both downloaded Linn files and (in-line
with what you said) the one that plays fine has a Sample Rate of
44.1khz. The problem one was 96khz.
Is it better to downsample to 48khz
Theoretically, there should be little difference between 48KHz and 44.1
Khz. Nevertheless, I have down-sampled some 96KHz material, and it
sounds awfully good. Maybe it is just wishful thinking on my part.
I have made comparisons of the same material: 44.1KHz-16bit versus
48KHz-24bit that
