Checked the files in c:\program

Technically - simple. Even with the transcoding.

check in the web-UI settings information page, and there you have your

It would be a good idea to check if the players macaddress as reported
by squeezeboxserver corresponds to whats on the label under the player.
and also verify the firmware version on the player it should be 130 .

You could try using softsqueeze as a player - that would exclude the

Softsqueeze is suitable because I know JavaSound only support 44.1kHz

Thanks for correcting my statements.
So the facts are:
SB Classic will be sold till warehouses are empty and its successor is
the Touch. Which seems to be more expensive, but thats only the MSRP
which is higher than the SB Classic which is available since a while.
SB Touch has more features
So basically what is requested is something like The Synchronizer
plugin.
I have now installed it. It works, gets the job done. I will now
replace SB's own sync on my main menu. But I really think it should be
core functionality. Sync is a main differentiator and shouldn't rely on
users fiddling
Congratulations. Great work!

Syncing volume means that each player gets the exact same numerical

This only works if you gain stage and calibrate all your sb's/stereos to
