In the end, I was looking at both..(if you follow the threads I think you will see that)........it was a rapid learning experience me and thanks to everyone (especially Phil) who helped me out. SS 6.5 produced a summary report which I looked at this morning - it said: Performance Summary : David Please queue up several tracks to play on this player and start them playing. Then press the Reset link below to clear the statistics and update this display. Reset Summary Control Connection : OK Streaming Connection : OK Signal Strength : OK Buffer Fullness : Low Server Response Time : OK Warnings The playback buffer for this player is occasionally falling lower than ideal. This is a Squeezebox2/3 and so the buffer fullness is expected to drop at the end of each track. You may see this warning if you are playing lots of short tracks. If you are hearing audio dropouts, please check your network signal strength ----------------------------- So I take from that (and of course, my listening experience) it is fine! (Next thread will be about Squeezecenter install.....I just need to pause and try a few things out first so as (hopefully) not to waste people's time). -- cronshd ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cronshd's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11954 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49779 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
