Re: [slim] Tracks stop after 30 sec

have you tried a factory reset? I would also suggest trying another player, so you can have confidence it's not your touch, or, you narrow it down to your touch. I doubt the touch wifi is contributing to your issues, but if you would like, why not test it on ethernet. I have two touches on

Re: [slim] Tracks stop after 30 sec

If the problem tracks sometimes work without problems, then I don't think converting ALAC to ALAC will likely help. Regarding how to do that. foobar2000 has converter, I use dbpoweramp for ripping converting (but it is not free), there are dozens of other converters. I haven't used iTunes in

I just unplugged Touch thinking maybe it’s some kind of cache issue. Plugged back in - one track stopped at 37sec then reset and played all the way through. Playing another problem track - no problem. Not expecting resolution because this has happened several times now. Change something and

I have not been using Pi as player. I just so happen to have an extra Pi that I intended as player. Headphone output for test is capital idea. I would think the WiFi in Touch is pretty dated. Maybe using separate WiFi router with Ethernet to Touch could boast performance?

If you want to test the "it's the touch" theory, and you don't have another player, you can download squeezelite-X from the windows store, or, pay a couple $ for sb player (if you have an android phone/tablet) or ??? if you have an iphone (??? = help me ipeople :)) I can't remember if you ever

Thank you for taking time to do that. I had thought that maybe I need to reposition SB Touch. So after turning it off, reconnecting - all those tracks played perfect. Via iPeng I moved to Spotty and played couple of songs. Went back to play those tracks again and every one of them stopped ~
