To try to isolate the problem source - you need to try to run a few programs in turn to see which if any affects LAN speed.
1. Start SC running playing a local source and ensure network speed is 270mbs. Keeps this running for all tests. 2. Start playing same audio out of PC speakersas when you have the LAN speed problem. Using Windows recorder accessory - record audio from "Wave Out". Check if network speed changes while recording. This test SC running and recording from PC audio. The WaveInput plugin is not in use. 3. Start playing same audio out of PC speakersas when you have the LAN speed problem. Get a copy of wavin2cmd.exe from the Plugin Bin a directory and lame.exe 3.96.1 into the same temp directory. Open a command prompt window and change direct to the temp directory with wavin2c,mf.exe and lame.exe . Run the following command wavin2cmd.exe -o wavin:0 | lame -x - audio.mp3 Check LAN speeds. After a few minutes stop the command and play the file audio.mp3 to ensure that you were recording the audio stream. If is just static - remove the "-x" command probably because version of lame is not 3.96.1. This is effectively the same processes that run when WaveInput plugin is being used. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35718 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
