In particular UTGG, your mod to Triodes code to improve the CPU efficiency has enabled my slow CPU ReadyNAS SPARC to play the full bit rate streams; before this, just continual rebuffering and not much sound. I did put LMS on a Raspberry Pi 2 as a backup and that has plenty of grunt without the mod.
Thanks again to everyone for your contributions and overcoming a much less than perfect BBC transition but despite all this, we are very lucky to have them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DaveCheltenham's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41689 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229
