Yep, these type files shouldn't buffer, but something is causing it. And you're not getting buffering from internet radio (but that's only one wifi hop rather than two). Regarding connecting the TOUCH with ethernet, I recall that simply plugging in an ethernet cable doesn't convert the TOUCH to ethernet. It's still setup to use WIFI and using WIFI even though you've plugged it in. That's why I suggested testing with the computer connected to ethernet. I can't recall how to change the TOUCH to ethernet. I think there's a way, but the full proof way is to just do a factory setup on the TOUCH with the ethernet connected and tell it to use that setup. *Home:* VBA 4TB (2.5) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.0/4TB>LMS 7.9.3>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.4) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.0/4TB>LMS 7.9.1>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (ethernet, Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>LMS 7.9.3>Squeezelite *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP4.0, hifiberry Dac+Pro, 4TB USB (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir2 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* ripping: dbpa > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112488 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
