You may have missed the start. The "bad" file doesn't play when in AIFF - it rebuffers. The OP has many 192 files, allconverted into AIFF - but only one rebuffers. As rebuffering is normally a network issues - the OP has jumped through hoops to see if metadata or other items are the root cause. With AIFF there is no compression, so every 192 AIFF file shoud have the same network & CPU load as another - so why does this one file cause problem - even when sent as Flac !! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109917 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
