Re: [slim] Rebuffering problem with wireless network....
Are all the Squeeze devices wireless? What music format is going over your network, FLAC, WAV, MP3? I think WAV would be most taxing and MP3 would be the least. What about the 7 cameras, are they live video and wireless? If the answer is yes, I'd start shutting off cameras. If you get to where all the cameras are shut down and still have the rebuffering then you know your cameras aren't overloading the network causing the squeezes to be rebuffering. I'm sure others will chime in here too. 2 Duets - 1 for upstairs and 1 for downstairs Rock Solid with LMS 7.8.0 and WHS 2011 w3wilkes's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22973 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101768 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Rebuffering problem with wireless network....
Is the NAS wired to the network if not do that you cut the load in half . 20% is not good , as you see when syncing the player with worst wifi would ruin it . There are countless treads on this forum on how to trace wifi problems , read them a lot of good hints . Having many neighbours with wifi ? But my 0.02$: *Squeezeboxes wifi is not the best . *wifi itself is problematic and in some enviroments with disturbances and competing networks it just won't do . Therefore instead of wasting to much time fighting wifi issues just wire up as much as possible of the system . IMO things that don't move should have Ethernet , leave wifi to the portable stuff .

Re: [slim] Rebuffering problem with wireless network....
With such long delay and all the players are synced , I would guess that one player may be the cause (the alternatives could be a server / network overload or dying router) and so you may need only to fix one player. I suggest try to get a scenario where rebuffering happens predictably and then run a series of tests, repeating the scenario but taking one player out of the sync group for each test. If rebuffering goes away on one of your tests when a specific player is not in the sync group then check he player to see what is the problem. If rebuffering does not go away - look for some more systemic such as server or network overload. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101768 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Rebuffering problem with wireless network....
Thank you for your suggestions. Before I read them I was thinking how odd it was that the second closest player to the router had a signal strength of only 20% and others much further away were much stronger. So I did a little test and turned it off. Violaeverything else worked as it should. I then realised that this Touch player was also connected wirelessly to its speakers. Clearly that was interfering with the router signal. I moved the player from its position to see if I could get a stronger signal. Got it to 75% strength by moving it marginally. That made the difference and I've now had no buffering for about an hour. I might well have fixed the problem. *_Another_issue__*you might be able to help me with is with settings. I have one player that is named 'unnamed controller'. When I choose 'settings' in LMS and choose the 'player' tab I get this message '404 Not Found: playerid=00:04:20:27:0a:d3' and nothing else. I used to be able to change the name of the player by going into this tab.

Well IE11 was certainly the browser with the issue, give Chrome or Firefox a go.

Re: [slim] Power Switch II for LMS in Mac OS X
Thanks. The PowerSwitch II's maxVersion was any already, even though it was last updated in 2008. I manually installed the plugin and it did show up on Mac LMS's active plugin list. However, the SB3 cannot control the power with Mac LMS server. If I change the LMS server back to Windows version, it works. I am at lost.
