Yes, it's very simple. The web request uses all the cpu power, streaming gets interrupted, slimp3 cannot recover because its buffer is not large enough. alextegg;149302 Wrote: > With 6.5.1 onwards, at least, since the introduction of cover art I > cannot use the web interface to browse albums without causing the > slimp3 to stutter, the sync'ing with the SB3 is a red herring as it > happens without it.Cover art was there long before 6.5.

Slimdevices do a great job by still supporting even their very first product. But I don't think it is reasonable to expect the same performance from a slimp3 and a sb3. Most other companies would have just dropped support for their earlier products to make you buy their latest and greatest. On mac and linux you can already fork web requests to a seperate process. On low power systems this might not be sufficient (see my previous post).
