I don't think it is a processor power issue, because once the
intermittency issue subsides after the first minute or so, it works
just fine for a long time -- hours if I have Random Mix going.

I have 200 Gigs of music encoded in AAC. It played back fine on the
Roku (until the hardware started falling apart). I definitely did NOT
understand that the Squeezebox could not play this common format
natively when I got it.  The reviews I saw all looked like this:

<blockquote>The DRM issue notwithstanding, the Squeezebox's file
compatibility is otherwise stellar: MP3, AAC, WMA, WAV, AIFF, FLAC,
Apple Lossless, WMA Lossless, and Ogg Vorbis files can all be streamed
without issue. In other words, if your music files are free of DRM
restrictions, there's a good chance the Squeezebox will play
them.</blockquote>

I noticed that if I pull the Ethernet cable out while the Duet is
playing it takes a long time to empty the cache and lose playback. If I
had to guess, I'd say the player is starting playback with less than a
full cache, which runs out causing the dropouts. If there was some way
to tell it to fill the cache before beginning, all would be well... 

bpa, your help is greatly appreciated.
