Hi, I am having the same rebuffering problem. I'm using the Touch (7.6) with a Sheevaplug (Squeezeplug) as the server with a 1TB WD essentials USB HD for storage. All my files are FLAC (-3 compression).
I have altered the self.decodeThreshold variable in usr/share/jive/jive/audio/Playback.lua from 2048 to 16384, and this improves the situation greatly, although the initial time to buffer is increased (obviously, as the buffer is now 8 times larger). I have still noticed that when selecting a new album, often it will start playing the first song for a second or two, then it will stop and load the album art, and then the song will start up again from where it left off. I am thinking that if the album art (if present) would load first and complete before filling the music buffer, then this would not happen. I am not sure where the buffer for album art is, or how to acheive this. Does anyone know the size of album art that does not need resizing at all on the Touch? This would reduce the time taken to load the album art to a minimum. I also have a good ol' Squeezebox 1 which used to also have similar rebuffering problems using a Windows XP box for the Squeezebox server. -- Percival Sweetwater ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Percival Sweetwater's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43302 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84612 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
