Bugs that are not reproducible are impossible to diagnose. This is true of computers as well as cars. "My car makes a funny noise, but stops when I take it to the shop" problems go back 100 years. It is actually more true of computers than cars: the nature of digital computers makes their behavior predictable excepting for very very few environmental factors (compared to a car, which has thousands of moving parts, tons of vibrations, etc). "Can you provide a test case where this can be seen/heard/diagnosed" is essential to fixing bugs... It is hardly a sin to ask for a demonstration. If a bug can not be reproduced or demonstrated, then how on earth is it to be fixed? -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36503 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
