I have a collection of about 450 albums in EAC-ripped Uberstandard file-per-track FLAC on a Western Digital Elements 1TB mains-powered USB drive (NTFS) plugged directly into my Squeezebox Touch, which is plugged into a NAD T747 AVR using coaxial S/PDIF.
All album art is 600x600 and stored as folder.jpg, not embedded. These tracks transition perfectly in foobar2000 and on my Rockboxed Sansa Clip+. I've set crossfade and so on to off and zero nearly everywhere I can think that might affect playback, but some tracks still have their beginning slightly clipped off. It's really about half a second or less, and tends to happen mostly at the beginnings of albums. Some albums are affected throughout. Problems I can see that may be causing this. * - There is a lack of silent stream being fed to the AVR and it's resyncing whenever it encounters silence. I can run it via analogue RCA, but I'd prefer not to. * - Tracks beginning with a few microseconds of digital silence are being trimmed by some "force gapless" setting I'm not able to find. * - NTFS is not supported as well as FAT32. This is easy to fix but will take time. * - 450 albums using USB functionality is a bit too much for the Squeezebox Touch to handle. I'd really rather not have to run a NAS or anything to get better playback. * - There is some tag or flag I am unaware of causing the issue. * - The CUE/log files left in the folders are causing an issue. I don't play the CUEs. Should I delete them? * - There is a buffer setting I can improve. * - The cover art should be downsized and compressed so that it takes less loading per track. Any ideas? I've looked through past threads on similar problems, and have made every adjustment I can, but I still have the same issue. -- Ladyfingers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ladyfingers's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48645 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89250 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
