We're trying out a new Transporter and really enjoying it, but also
notice some problems that we wonder if anybody else has seen, and/or
might please have some tips.

1) After switching to/from internet radio and SlimServer, or to/from
SqueezeNetwork and SlimServer, the music is sometimes literally too
fast or too slow. My wife and I got quite a laugh last night, hearing
Diana Krall singing like a chipmunk! :) Other times it is too slow, I
mean waaaaay tooooo ssllooooooow. Unplugging/replugging the Transporter
fixes it sometimes, but sometimes takes several unplug/replug actions.

2) The Transporter sometimes just locks up and stops responding to
remote or onboard buttons at all. This is fixed by
unplugging/replugging (at least so far).

3) The onboard knob seems to almost randomly go through periods of
making its occasional noises, you know the ones I mean - those buzzing
sounds that mechanically come from the knob itself. However this is
loud enough to become distracting sometimes, even when music is
playing. 

4) The onboard knob, once so far, completely stopped working - as did
all other onboard buttons except power, play and pause. The remote also
completely stopped functioning during this episode.
Unplugging/replugging the Transporter (I'm getting pretty used to doing
this now) several times, did eventually fix it.

5) Sometimes the music will temporarily lose its hifi sound (becomes a
bit unfocused and tinny/harsh) only to sound excellent and normal again
after a power cycle. The difference is not extreme, but it is
noticeable.

We only play uncompressed .wav files and the internet radio stations
(radio acoustic, etc), and at the moment are using SlimServer 6.5.3 on
a Windows 2000 machine.

We really like the Transporter's sound and functionality, so please
don't consider this in any way a hostile etc thread :) Again, just
wondering if anybody recognizes these Transporter behaviors and has
tips to share? Thanks to any/all that reply.
