I finally fixed this. Adding the port setting to Avast did not fix the issue. However, once I turned off the Avast virus software, it finally worked. I did, turn off Avast for 10 minutes, then turn back on. For 10 minutes it worked great. I even timed it on my stop watch. As soon as the 11th minute it, it crashed again.

Re: [slim] How I fixed my SB3 when it kept freezing /Rebooting
One of my two SB3 units has stopped working, so I'm wondering if I should attempt the process described by the OP. Basically the issue is that player connects to the server and songs seems to progress as they should, but there is no sound and the VU meter (I think that's what it's called) is stuck as if the sound has constant volume. Doing a hard reset using the + button and re-installing the firmware didn't help, nor did replacing the player with the one in my living room (that is, connecting it to a different power supply, network cable and stereo system). Would it be wise at this stage to follow the OP suggestions and open up the device? -- boren boren's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51290 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91095 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

A clear statement of your current symptoms may help. If your SB3 is rebooting then fiddling with faad.exe will not change anything since the stream to your SB3 will be fed from lame.exe or flac.exe Is the problem restricted to AAC streams ? If you have erratic AAC stream playback and you are using 7.6.0 or 7.6.1 - upgrade to 7.6.2 or later as there is a fix there for a bug which only affects transcoded streams. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91095 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
