Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SB Touch suddenly won't play non-44.1KHz MP3s

2019-08-20 Thread atrocity

I guess most of us with Touches have seen the situation where sometimes the display doesn't properly update and stays one track behind, but I've recently had situations where that issue coincided with losing gapless playback. I was playing live albums, so the less-than-a-second gaps between
