Please try turning off mp3 transcoding. You won't extend anything
through that any WiFi coverage will be good enough for a single flac
stream.
Scheduling on windows isn't particularly good and while transcoding to
mp3 will not bring your server down it can be enough to kill sync
timing.

Please try to transcode to flac instead, should use much less CPU and
