Here's something strange which I've noticed on and off for weeks now. Wondering who else might have noticed it too:
Sometimes, when playing streams from RadioIO, I hear little crackles or pops or static from the left channel. Some observations: -- I have heard it on RadioIO Acoustic and Eclectic. It may occur on other RadioIO streams, but I listen to Acoustic the most. -- I have never heard it on Shoutcast (I listen to Skyfm Jazz, Folk Alley, Radio Paradise) -- Don't know about Live365 (login problems there; I have to go read the forums about that--just been too busy.) -- I have heard it using my Squeezebox2, using SlimServer versions from 6.0.2 to the most recent 6.2 beta, and with several firmware versions. (I don't think this is a hardware issue.) This is through my amplifier and speakers. -- I have heard it using SoftSqueeze with headphones (this is where I noticed it first and thought it was a loose connection or maybe interference from my computer). -- I have heard it using SqueezeNetwork (just verified that tonight). -- It has occurred on both WinXP boxes I use. -- I have never heard it in the right channel. -- It's is seemingly random in occurence, not during any particular type of music or listening level. It's most noticable during soft passages, of course, but I've heard it other times as well. -- I have not listened to RadioIO with other software. So am I going nuts or have others heard this? I did a search in the forums but didn't find anything.
