Hi again Gary, If I've got this right my respnses to each of your points are posted below the relavent point below: -

I would add one further bit of info though. I happened to be looking at the screen last night at exactly the point at which it dropped the track and cover art info. It happened within a few seconds of the end of a track, the track terminated a few seconds early and the next track started playing with NO gap between and at the same time the track and cover art info disappeared (it was there for the first track but gone for the second track). This happened about 15 to 20 minutes into the listening session. > This is probably normal. You might have the digital clock set as your > screensaver.

I have the digital clock set to display when I'm not listening to music via the Touch. > I think this is an important symptom.

I do have foobar 2000 set up on my PC to play music from the same library as the Touch but I NEVER have them running together. Both sources are fed by digital co-ax into my Beresford 7520 DAC which also acts as a source switch. > Maybe you should change the port for SbS from 9000 to something else, > maybe 9001.

I'll try this later today and let you know - busy watching football (soccer to you ;-) ) at the moment. > This is normal. the regular TOUCH remote is an infrared remote.
