I thought they already cleared this up with you. TCP/IP over ethernet or wireless works the same. Plus there is no notion of jitter that can effect TCP/IP. The data either arrives intact or it doesn't. If it does not arrive before the buffer is exhausted the music stops, it is not slightly degraded or influenced by jitter, it just stops. It may be a brief outage but it will be very noticeable and yes unpleasant. The solution to that is to fix you network connection nothing else, yes a deeper buffer would mask the problem better but the buffers in the SB built today are plenty big. Why is this concept so difficult to understand, while the audio data is encapsulated in a TCP/IP packet it is protected from any modifications. It is treated like any other data, if wifi corrupted the data in any way the data is invalid. As long as the data can arrive in a timely manner which is really not a difficult task even for wifi the music will play the same. 802.11G supports in real life roughly 20Mbits/sec for a decent connection, uncompressed 16/44 wav is ~1.4Mbits/sec, flac is ~0.7Mbits/sec. -- m1abrams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ m1abrams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=850 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74721 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
