I have problems with my slimp3 - takes a long time before sound starts,
and the sound comes out garbled. If I use the web interface I can get
it to play ok, but as soon as I use the remote control, the sound gets
halted for every command, and when it resumes, the sound is garbled. 

Also have done some research on the forum, wiki etc.
Came across a comment regarding squeezebox on the wiki
(http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Hardware_Reset_commands):

> Reset Audio Hardware (aka Xilinx Reset)

> These steps will often fix problems with garbled sound, or no sound
at all during playback.

The wiki page does not say if it is possible to do such a reset on a
Slimp3, so I sent a question to Logitech support, and they confirmed
they have no way to do this, but suggested maybe the wider community
may be able to help.

My question for help comes in 3 parts:
1) anyone know a way to diagnostics if this is really the root cause of
my problems? Or suggestions on other issues that may cause similiar
problems (I already tried to reload the firmware with bootloader, tried
different server versions, different PCs as servers, wireless/wired
network - made no difference)

2) anyone ever done a reset of a Slimp3 Xilnx chip?

3) on the circuit board, there are soldering points for what looks like
a 6 pin connector, and from the Xilinx documentation I can see that the
cable used for in-place configuration of the chip use 6 signalling
cables - anyone know any more about the "pin-out" for the 6 soldering
points, and/or any info on how to get hands on the JEDEC file for the
Slimp3? 

Any help is greatly appreciated, I love my Slimp3 and would be very
sorry to let it go

Regards
