While you're troubleshooting the problems, (especially determining whether it is insufficient wifi bandwidth or straining an underpowered NAS, could you temporarily run an ethernet cable across the floor? That is, before you get serious with drilling holes, running through walls, installing wallplates, and messing with drywall or spackle (my least favorite, yuck). Even though wired connections are always good, that's a lot of sweat if it turns out that the main problem is your NAS's resources.
I am sure you can get back to the wired/wifi question again by doing a factory reset of the Touch and re-doing the setup process. You can do that by pressing the very small button just above where the power cable connects to the Touch, and hold it for about 10-15 seconds, until the screen says "Factory reset" or something similar. I'm just not sure if you can change to wired without doing a full reset on the Touch. Ah, Apple Lossless. I don't have any of those, so I don't follow those events, but one of the developers (andyg) has reported that the ALAC decoder in the Touch is buggy, so SBS uses transcoding on the server when possible (see this thread for a little info, search the forums for more: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84823). So it's possible that your NAS isn't able to transcode enough of the track in the < 10 seconds before it starts playing the first track. Does the same thing happen if you are in the middle of a track and then skip to the next track? -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87448 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
