Just an experience I want to share for those that run into the same: My hardware: RPI 2, HifiBerry AMP+, EDIMAX EW-7811UN Wifi.
For the first several days it played without any hickup but I had it on wired ethernet. A few days later I removed the network cable and let it play over Wifi for half an hour before I switched it off. Last Thursday I started to listen again and all of a sudden, early in the evening the music started to stutter like mad. I restarted the RPI but no luck. I mostly stream flac from Qobuz, I tried a lower bitrate, no success, still stuttering. Mhmm, evening, just after dinner, more traffic from neighbors? I never had this issue with the Classic, Touch and Boom that also connect via Wifi. I checked what Wifi networks are in the air from my neighbors and found that many (8 out of 12), just like me use channel 11. I switched my router/accesspoint to a channel nobody was on and from then on no stuttering anymore. Seems like the EDIMAX 7811 (or the driver) is not fully stable when the channel is crowed. So if you experience stuttering check out your wifi environment before you start yelling and swearing at PicorePlayer/RPi does the all-black SB sound better than the white SB? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hsmeets's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9716 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
