Well, maybe I misunderstood as I'm not a native speaker. But to me his
comment seems to suggest USB is inherently more problematic as "going
through USB adds a couple of extra steps in the digital to analog
process."

Apparently, there will be a Wolfson DAC (or DAC+ or whatever) for the
model B+. It would be great to eventually get support for it, t
If you're using accents or German umlauts in your SSID or PSK, then --
sorry to say -- the issue is not picoreplayer but it's a case of PEBKAC.

Paul,
I was thinking about the same setup. I already

I have to retract my previous statement.
Still getting pops on occasion. Again, this is via the HDMI out using a
clean 1.17 install with default settings (nothing changed but output to
HDMI followed by a reboot.)

It's possible that I had messed up some parameters. Now that I did a
clean install of 1.17 it's working perfectly.

Ok, took out the overclock. Doesn't make any difference. Still getting

Thanks for the reply. I'm wondering if someone else can confirm this as

First off, the obligatory thanks: this is an awesome distro, I'm loving
it!
I'm running picoreplayer 1.16a and Triode's squeezelite 1.6.4 on a model
B rev 2.0, HDMI audio, "mild" overclock, 100 Mbit wired network
connection. When playing back 16 bit/44.1 kHz FLAC audio, I get
occasional pops. Usu
I had Squeezelite working perfectly for quite some time. I run it on a
RPi. Behringer UCA202 DAC with S/PDIF. I'm passing the "-a 160" option
to squeezelite.
The distro is raspbmc. Everything worked until I deployed the July
update a few days ago. Now all I get are constant dropouts (crackles).
