I've had a Touch for several months now, and have generally been very happy with it. Yet in recent weeks it's begun to drive me nuts. I hope someone can help!
The problem seems to lie with the Squeezebox music scanner. I first noticed that there was a tendency for the Touch to disconnect from the Squeezebox server - located on my laptop - between album tracks. At this point, the remaining track time would start counting down from 59 minutes. Initially, this was happening via a wireless connection to my Netgear router. But it still happens now I'm connected to my laptop via ethernet. On examining the Server Control Panel, I noticed that when the connection is lost (and sometimes you do get a Touch message to the effect that it's having difficulty connecting, other times you just get no sound), something fishy is going on under Music Scan Details (under the Status tab). Usually, the progress bar is all green, suggesting that a rescan has just taken place. Hit Rescan and, as often as not, though a scan begins, it ends almost immediately and the connection does not resume. Try again, and suddenly it's clear that the scan has begun in earnest - at which point the next track will usually begin to play. Can anyone at least begin to suggest what might be happening? I have a large music library (over 35,000 tracks) and I'm using Windows 7. What's especially puzzling is why this has only started to happen so often recently. While using a wireless connection, I use to suffer the odd drop-out, but nothing like as bad as it is now - where I can rarely make it through to the end of an album without several interruptions. -- radioshoes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radioshoes's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40247 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81667 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
