Hi, I'm wondering if anybody could give me some guidance for some
SYNC_ERROR messages I'm getting when using Squeezelite.
LMS 7.9.0 - 1428327734 @ Tue Apr 7 04:05:31 CUT 2015
Squeezelite 1.7 (and also happens with Local Player plugin 1.6.5)
Windows 8.1 Pro
HP Proliant N40L Microserver with 8GB
Just wanted to say thanks for a fantastic plug-in. Picked up a
Chromecast Audio as part of the £15 deal and was up and running using
the default settings within a matter of minutes.
Appreciate the work and effort that's been put into this :D

I don't have any problems now, so this question is purely for my own

Thanks for your ongoing work with this plug-in. I don't have any
problems, but this is just a question for my own interest.
I've been using LMS along with your plug-in with my Sonos system for a
few years now in order to handle over 65K tracks and to enable

it down to the codecs config. It's usually set to "aif,pcm,flc,mp3"
