I have now heard from one other user with a similar problem. It seems to be nothing to do with the Touch or the Enhanced Kernel.
It turns out that if you hibernate and wake the PC running LMS (in my case a Vortexbox appliance), LMS itself causes the sound pause ~10 sec before the end of each track. Stopping and Starting LMS (no need to reboot the PC) fixes the problem. Given that LMS development has (mostly) stopped I don't suppose anyone will look at this now. No matter - at least I know how to get rid of the problem when it occurs. LMS 7.8 on VortexBox Midi, FLACs 16 or 24 bit, up to 192kbps. Touch on Ethernet (in another room), digital out to a Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC. Old wireless laptop running Xubuntu controls server using Chromium. Squeezelite on Vortexbox, Ubuntu & Windows desktops plus the laptop. Meridian Explorer USB DAC to listen directly to Vortexbox & other PCs as required. Spare Touch in loft! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94512 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
