I removed the sync'd SB3s, so just Squeezelite playing on the Pi4. The music is on a 256GB USB stick. No network involved other than for controlling LMS via a Win10 web browser. I am listening via the Pi's 3.5mm audio output. I still get the stuttering. It is only drawing 4W power. I do not have Inguz or anything other add-ins other than BBC Sounds which should be irrelevant. I attached the log file. Playback paused at 20.44.11 for several seconds, and again at 20.45.2.5 to restart at 20.45.48. I think it paused one or two other times during the log. 39083 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: log FLAC 192-24.txt | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=39083| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ SB3 -> Quad 909 -> Quad Electrostatic speakers, Quad 405 -> TBI subwoofer 3 x SB3s + SB Radio LMS on Raspbian on a Pi4 Rotel RSP1068 surround processor, Quad 707 -> B&W surround ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rbl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4517 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117034 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
