Ok, that proves it has nothing to do with wireless, then. I'm stumped as to why this only started last week -- it's a known architectural problem with slimserver, caused by the fact that slimserver does streaming and web serving in the same process, and really should have always been hitting you in this scenario. My only guess is did you add a bunch of tracks to your library recently? If so, you might have crossed a threshold making the advanced search take longer. The next question to ask is, do you have any modern SD players (SB2/3/transporter)? Or just SB1s? If the latter, your best bet is to transcode your FLAC library to MP3, and only put the MP3s in your Slimserver library. Don't delete the FLACs, though! That way, slimserver won't be transcoding in realtime, so there won't be as much going on on the computer to compete with streaming when you do a web search. - Marc _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
