I think it transcodes to LAME, if I'm not mistaken. I had the same
problem with TP and SB3 and had to set the SB3 to limit @ 320k. Solved
all my problems!! I could tell it was wireless bandwidth, especially,
when I'd open up my Powerbook to 'surf' a bit while listening. This
ALWAYS made the wi
Hooray! Here's the solution for my problem. Please help me determine
what this means.
The fix? In SlimServer, under File Format Conversion Setup, UNCHECK
the box next to Ogg Vorbis (built-in). Suddenly everything is synced
beautifully.
More on the symptoms: JJZolx was correct, the Squeezebox
How does the synch get off by a full second only seconds into the
track?
One is starting before the other?
One has dropouts?
One is playing (significantly) slower than the other? If that's
possible, then what does it say about non-synched playback through the
SB - can playback speed be faster
Well, FLAC sync works for me as well between an SB and a Transporter.
I'm wondering whether you are unwittingly transcoding, either because
the ogg-ogg entry in server settings/file formats isn't ticked, or
perhaps there is a bug in some table somewhere that tells the server
that the transporter
No, I'm not transcoding or bandwidth-limiting or anything.
In addition to NetTest, I'm going to try it out with FLAC and see if
this is a Vorbis-only issue. I'm assuming kdf has a similar-enough
setup to mine that I should be able to get similar results when doing
the exact same thing.

The way it should work:
. slimserver fills the buffer of both players
. slimserver sends them both a 'start playing'
The difference between the two starts should be minimal (unless you
have a very icky network and the packets have to be retransmitted I
guess...)
Are you transcoding or anything
Haven't had a chance to install NetTest yet, but I wanted to ask two
more questions:
- Could my use of WPA2/AES wireless security be putting a load the
processor that might cause such a delay?
- Could certain receivers (for the Transporter) and active speakers
(for the Squeezebox) introduce such
Shouldnt be. The "already-playing" player should restart the song it
was playing so that they are both started at the same spot.

I also just considered--I only really ever use the remote-control
interface. I went to the web interface to set up the sync but did
everything else from the remote control on one device. Perhaps there's
different behavior when you set the playlist for both devices from the
web interface?
