Andy,

since 6.5 i have found that the problem can take anywhere from just a
few minutes to close to an hour, (when using the SB with SS).

as i wrote this post, it took 40min to occur.

it could also be that the vagaries of my net connection cloud route are
different from yours, as i'm in central Pa, while you're in Pitts. 
(where i am, "adelphia" is becoming comcast fyi).

is "the buffer fullness display from Player Settings" a SERVER setting
or a LOCAL PLAYER setting?  

what category is the setting under?

i don't see anything resembling it under player settings.  under server
settings, network heading, i see "RADIO STATION BUFFER SECONDS" and mine
is set to 3 seconds, as opposed to a percent.

is this what you meant?

also i had another thought...

could it be the "lame quality level" under player settings?

mine is set to 0 but it was b4 6.5 too, without problem.  and isn't
this a server function anyway?  why is it under player settings?

does it even come into play if the stream is already mp3?  meaning, is
it for transcoding ONLY, or ALSO decoding mp3?  i  assumed this was for
streaming music FROM my SS out to others on the net only.


bpa,

if i have to i'll DL and install that program, but i have no exp with
it nor did i really want to take on a new learning project to get this
fixed.  but, if i have to, i will.

btw, my router/SB is setup to be wireless, and SB has 100% strength. 
the router connects to my motorola cable modem.  the router has the
latest firmware, and is setup to pass multicast stuff, ...i try to make
it wide open.  the cable modem is older, maybe a docsis 1.0, i'm not
really sure, but its good as far as i can tell.  my computer connects
to the router via ethernet wire.


marc,

are you saying feedback on released programs is useless and the only
valid feedback that will enable changes to the next release is on beta
software?  b/c that just isn't true.  and from what i understand, 6.5.1
will be released very soon, so i prefer to wait.  i just don't like beta
software, never have, and generally just don't use it.


thx all -mdw
