Hi there. I've only had my squeezebox 2 days so I've probably missed something obvious here.....
I'm well chuffed with my purchase so far, but have a problem with AlienBBC radio statio streaming. I've been listening to radio stations via AlienBBC (Virgin & Radio 4), but I've found that when I do a "Browse Albums" on the web page, the radio feed completely stops while I wait for the web page to display. Sometimes the radio station restarts afterwards and sometime I have to hit play to get it streaming again. Is this to be expected? (I really hope not!) I have noticed that when the web page is updating slimserver.pl uses pretty much all the CPU (but leaves some memory free). Maybe my server is too underpowered to do both at once... My details: Squeezebox 3 running wirelessly I run SlimServer 6.2.2 under a minimal (no Xwindows or other bloat) Linux Fedora FC5 install. Hardware is a Via Epia M1000 based PC with a 1GB processor & 256 MB RAM (soon to be upgraded to 512GB). I have "Use RAM as temp. storage" set and a Database Cache Size of 20000. When I doubled the default to this I was expecting to see the free memory drop, but it seemed to make no difference. When streaming the stations, slimserver.pl averages about 2% CPU, and mplayer+flac averages just under 10%. The CPU is idle about 80-90%. Any performance tips grateful appreciated, especially any suggestion on how to keep the radio station going!
