Ok. I checked the status indicator under Albums and sure enough it correlates with the unresponsiveness of the app. However, perhaps I was inpatient and may have turned the iPad off or it turned itself off during the sync process. I timed it this morning at 8 minutes instead of the estimates above. However, waiting 8 minutes for the first use FEELS like an hour. I'm tempted to get a faster server, maybe one with an i3 processor. Any other ideas? I guess I don't have to sync every night especially if it's going to affect iPeng and I don't really put new music in every day. I can just rescan manually when I add music. -- jimzak http://zzzone.net http://have-a-nice-day.org http://www.last.fm/user/zzzoneDOTnet http://somethingsomethingsomething.net Ripper: dBpoweramp Router: Lynksys WRT54GL Server: SBS 7.5.1 - Atom-based nettop - Win XP SP3 Player: 2 Booms, 1 Radio, 1 Touch Control: 2 controllers, 1 iPod Touch w/iPeng, 1 iPad w/iPeng for iPad & SqueezePad 'Library' (http://zzzone.net/photo/2009/music1.jpg): 83,000+ FLAC/MP3 files - 2TB external HD x 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jimzak's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17592 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82681 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
