Thanks Jim. That's what I suspected given the talk of performance limitations.
I manage my rips over the network for convenience. My server is in the basement running Linux. I perfer to use dbPowerAmp, a Windows app, to rip. I rip/encode to FLAC at the same time. It saves me the step of having to copy the file over when I'm done. I was surprised that this worked as well as it does when I first tried it. The network isn't a signifcant bottleneck. I suspect this works well because dbPowerAmp rips to memory and encodes from there. So it's not a case where the data sent across the network, read back over the network, encoded, and then written back over the network. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 duet, 1 receiver.
