Remember player is quite dumb.  CLI is LMS giving a version of the
Tranporter behaviours.  From the slimproto - it is clea rthat data has
been sent to Transporter, data has been moved from Transporter input
buffer into output buffer (which I think means it has been decoded) but
then nothing happens. Since output buffers is full, LMS doesn't send
anymore data until output moves, LMS will not generate any display to
show track is playing,  So Transporter firmware has detected something
that tells Transporter processor that output cannot happen (e.g. some
sort of DAC input pins say "Not ready"). 



As I see it, what is required now is somebody with a problem Transporter
and a scope or meter to test the circuit (e.g. DAC pins, voltage rails)
- they may need advice/guidance from a h/w person such as JoeMuc2009 who
has some knowledge of the Transporter innards.

As a starting point, I think there are some diagnostics in the
Transporter firmware menu  - such as test tones.  Any test in the
firmware menu should be checked.
