Hi, I don't know if your issue is not SYNC at all or some getting some lags. Did you try the adjustment setting in SB setting : see the screen shot. Also in your audio setting for the player : I think there is a possibility to enable/disable re-sampling) or maybe in the App. My setting is the default and are visible in the screenshot. I made some other tests of SYNC with : 1) squeezelite (http://code.google.com/p/squeezelite/) but on windows, it synchronizes but some time you can hear some minor lags. I have noticed that it synchronizes at the beginning of each track. So, wait the next track to have a new synchronizing. I don't remember my result on a Linux OS, but the developer told me that it should sync without problem. 2) also another Player that you can try is : http://angrygoatapps.com/sbplayer_android.html. 3) Squeeze play on windows : I'm sure that it doesn't synch. 1816318164 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: SB-Sync-01.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=18164| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ASUS S1 D525 ATOM with 2GB on Linux Gentoo i686-linux Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.0 (Previous Version : 7.7.3 - 7.5.5 - r32671) Perl Version: 5.18.2 - i686-linux-thread-multi Database Version: DBD::SQLite 1.34_01 (sqlite 3.7.7.1) (Previously : MySQL : 5.1.70) 1 x Squeezebox Touch : 7.5.1-r9009 + 1 x Squeezebox Boom + 1 x Squeezebox Receiver Squeeze Lite on Raspberry SqueezeCommander (0.9.6.1) on ACER A1-810 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ esa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9362 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87364
