I presently have an SB Touch, two SB Radios and a (currently retired) SB3. I have never had a problem with them. I also have a Pi3 running LMS on piCorePlayer, and three raspberry Pi (of various vintages and DACs) running piCorePlayer as a player. So I guess my long term solutions would be in the

You may also have to enable "proxied" playing for the player. This shouldn't be necessary just for the https streams, as they would be proxied automatically. But sometimes it helps with other issues. -- -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list
