I'll have to wait until it plays up again and look at the log (I > can't imagine why I didn't do that before - Doh!). The problem disappeared for a while, just to fool me. This morning it started again. I looked at the log but saw nothing. I stopped & restarted LMS, and it worked fine.
I suppose this tells me I'm on the wrong thread. I've absolutely no idea what to try next - I suppose I'll try over on the Vortexbox forum in case it's related to something there. Transient problems such as this are someone's revenge for going all digital. It is getting to the point where I don't want to listen to my music in case it happens again. LMS 7.8 on VortexBox Midi, FLACs 16 or 24 bit. Touch on Ethernet (in another room), digital out to a Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC. Old wireless laptop running Linux Mint Debian controls server using Chromium. Squeezelite on Ubuntu & Windows desktops plus the laptop. Meridian Explorer USB DAC to listen directly to Vortexbox & other PCs as required. Spare Touch in loft! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94512 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
