Higher is better for sound quality, lower is better, as you have discovered, for buffering.
kbps = kilobits per second. This is the data rate of the encoded audio being sent to the player. Talk stations can get away with much lower bitrates than music stations, as the audio is much less complicated so compresses much better. An explanation of bitrate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitrate -- funkstar my collection: *1*x squeezebox radio *1*x squeezebox touch *1*x squeezebox boom *2*x controller, *1*x receiver *2*x sb3 (sliver/black), *1*x sb2 wired (silver) *1*x sb (black), *1*x slimp3 (with rear shield) interested in any others if you have them! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67819 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
