Your sig describes the hardware as "Intel NUC i5 Debian > 16gb RAM 1TB" but doesn't tell us what version of Debian it's running.
Hi Rob, thanks once again for your help, I have made some progress, I replaced the NUC as the music source, with one of my NanopiM4 SBC boards, installed LMS and Squeezlite on it - fired it up and SUCCESS NOT ONE JUMP !!! , so I concluded it must be the USB on the NUC causing the problem. Reinstated the NUC as the music source but this time I used a different USB port ( there are two on it ) and bingo it didn't jump once - It must be a dodgy usb port - thanks again for all your help it's much appreciated Intel NUC i5 Debian 16gb RAM 1TB SSD -> LMS -> Squeezelite -> Sablon EVO USB -> SRCDX -> Wave Storm BNC -> Chord Hugo MScaler -> dual BNC -> Chord DAVE DAC -> Meridian 551 -> Monitor Audio Gold -> Me Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow!
