I haven't taken receipt of my SB3 yet so I test out ripped files and other aspects of this technology by running Slimserver with Softsqueeze. If I am doing any significant processing - I am ripping and compressing with FLAC a lot - on my laptop while listening (with headphones) I will invariably, just give it a little time, get serious breakup of the playback and eventually actually stop playing altogether.
I asked a question a while back whether or not the SB3 can perform while my laptop's CPU and file system are extremely busy, since I expect to be ripping and compressing well into '06 while listening to my SB3. The answer came back that there would be no problem. Now I am beginning to wonder. My only consolation is that softsqueeze is competing for resources on my laptop whereas the actual SB3 hardware won't be. However, Slimserver is also competing for resources and will be when I get the SB3 hardware up and running. Which is causing me the problem? Both interfaces are sitting there acting like they are playing (running) fine even though no music is playing. Any thoughts?
