This morning I realized I could investigate a supportable case, two
computers running Softsqueeze.
I added a laptop running Softsqueeze 3.0b3 to my existing setup with
the SoundBridge and the server host and its Softsqueeze. Startups and
sync were random. The SoundBridge would still sometimes be off as far
a several seconds.
The two computers would often be as far off as a second.
When I took the SoundBridge out of the mix, the two computers
LOCKED IN
PERFECTLY.
This is pretty strange. The fact that the server and 1 Softsqueeze
are on the same box could be a problem, as sync works best when all
clients have equal latency.
Ok, what's that SoundBridge doing that's so toxic?
Does the server wait until each device in the group ack's the unpause
before going to the next one?
Nope, it just blasts out unpause packets in series. See
Slim::Player::Sync::checkSync.
