Just did some more experimenting (with 7.7.3). When I select digital out using coax or USB out, I can get 192khz. When I select digital+analog I can only get 96khz on coax (i.e. the same as a non-EDO SBT). For the moment, I am leaving EDO installed as it increases my options, although it doesn'

This has probably been answered in this thread but my search didn't find it. In the testing I did earlier today, it appeared that selecting that as a source activated the coaxial, optical and analog connections simultaneously, but not the USB connection. Query as to (1) whether it can transmit f

I have a SanDisk 16 GB memory card, which holds a number of albums loaded from iTunes (256 kbps). When I insert it in either of my Squeezebox Touches, and look at the tracks for a given album, each track is listed twice. I double checked the contents on my computer which confirms that each track
