and the culprit was indeed 'wifi issues'. I think one of the Touch players isn't getting the best wifi signal. I had time to play with it today, so I connected it via powerline ethernet, and I had six players successfully streaming FLAC files all day. I still don't really understand why

You say only the server has changed but do you know whether or not your neighbours have installed a new router ? Or have you got any new wireless devices e.g. TV sticks, tablets, phones etc ? It only takes a tiny bit of intereference to cause havoc to synced wireless players. It is highly

I suggest going back to 7.8 and see what happens. If you still have sync issues then you can at least rule out 7.9 as the culprit. Fizbin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58734 View this thread:

Switch all players to MySB.com (no LMS) temporarily, see if Sync issue remains. If YES then you likely have a network/WiFi issue. If NO then it's likely an LMS/host computer issue. toby10's Profile:

Thanks for the replies - apologies for the slow response myself, I've been working away. This "could be a coincidence" certainly. It's just that it follows months and months, if not years of trouble-free synching. The only thing that's changed is the new server and appliance. Obviously that's a

I moved from a VB with 7.8 to another with 7.9 fairly recently. No sync issues. >From what you describe I'd say networking issue somewhere. If you have wireless players synced with wired ones and they display the symptoms I would immediately look at the wireless part of your network first.

It cold just be a coincidence . It's Michael that really knows what's going into the development, but an important old core feature like sync ? Any direct changes there ? I would be surprised . How ever you could try some things . Try smaller sync groups if one player has problems it wrecks the

A small update, for what it might be worth... I ran Radio Paradise (internet radio) for quite a while - there was no problem with that. I then switched to local FLAC files and this is the pattern - plays for about 12-15secs; stops for ca. 20 secs; plays again for 12-15 secs.. etc etc. So,

Hi folks, As the title says, I've just moved from an old Vortexbox running 7.8, to a new Nova/VB running 7.9. Nothing else has changed - the players are all in the same places, etc etc. Previously I had no issues routinely synching up to 5 or 6 players (three Touch; 2 Boom; perhaps one or two
