Hmm - it all seems to work now. Have rebooted everything and still
working so I suspect it will continue to work now. I guess turning the
AV/firewalls on/off reset something somewhere...
However, the other thing which has never worked, and still doesn't
work, is the sync. If I sync my SB3 and
Sync with software players is not reliable because each PC is different
(e.g slightly different audio hardware and driver) and the OS does not
provide good control over the audio output.
That said, audio should still be heard so I think it is because you are
mixing a player which can play WMA
Hm - I don't think that is it since I have the same problem when playing
FLAC files... As soon as I sync them, the SqueezsePlay looks to be
playing it, but no sounds comes out.

I don't think this is because the CPU is too old. I tried disabling
firewalls / AV on both PCs and it made no difference. In Task Manager
it is definitely squeezepay.exe that is consuming the CPU - I can't
see a wmadec.exe. Am running XP Pro. Is there any way I can just
reinstall all the

You haven't given any info but I think a P2 or P3 would probably be too
old but a P4 and later is OK.

In my experience of problems induced by av and
SBS and SqueezePlay are running on different machines.
But, very oddly, I re-enabled the firewalls and AV and now everything
seems fine! Have rebooted and it still seems fine. Very odd - I have
had this problem for a couple of months and something appears to have
changed when setting/resetting
It looks like Squeezeplay was expecting data from SBS but it wasn't
arriving or perhaps only on in very small amounts and so Squeezeplay
was spinning around looking for data to play using lots of CPU checking
for data.
If that is the case then either

Hi - I am running Squeezeplay 7.4r0 on a single CPU Windows XP Pro PC.
SBS7.5.2 is running on a different PC on the LAN. SqueezePlay works
fine, except for BBC radio stations and iPlayer which causes
SqueezePlay to consume 100% of CPU time. If I lower the thread priority
then the radio stutters.
That's a WMA stream. Do you get the same issue with other WMA streams
such as

Yes - that URL causes the same problem. I used to use iPlayer AAC, but I
found every so often (probably every couple of hours or so) it would
just stop for no reason, hence I now use their WMA link. The WMA works
fine when played through the SB3, but not through SqueeePlay

That means your problem has nothing to do with iPlayer - it is simply
WMA playback on device which do not support native WMA as SB3 has
native WMA playback.
On Windows WMA stream are decoded using an application called wmadec
and it uses Windows supplied libraries. By default the stream is then
