It so happens I am setting up SoftSqueeze today as well. I am running openSSH and SlimServer 6.2.1 on Ubuntu Linux 5.10 (compiled from source) at home, where the uplink is about 700Kbps.
Then I set up a ssh tunnel using SSH Secure Shell to the slimserver on the PC at work, and open the stream http://localhost:9000/stream.mp3 in iTune. It plays beautifully for hours. The only downside is that I have to launch three applications on the PC in order to get the audio: ssh client, web browser (for remote control), and iTune. So I installed Softsequeeze 2.2 to consolidate three applications to one. I first configured the built-in SSH client in SoftSqueeze. Everything connects fine but the sound started cut and out after a few seconds. At first, I thought it might have to do with the audio buffer size, so I increased it to 4096000 instead of the default 128000. But it does not have any noticable improvement. Then I turned off the built-in SSH client and started a separate SSH client with tunneling, as suggested by some posts in the forum. The choppy sound problem still persists. I don't think it's a network bandwidth problem, because I can stream the audio via SSH tunneling in iTune just fine. What could go wrong with the SoftSqueeze setup then? -- wei ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wei's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2414 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18716 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
