I admit very little experience w/ soft players. The one I've prefered is
Softsqueeze, I don't think I've ever run squeezeplay, I never was too
happy with SqueezePlay (with GUI).
I got the 32 bit executable and installed it on an Acer Aspire One
running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I started the executable without any option,
it worked immediately.
The sound is so incredibly tinny through the speakers I had to laugh.
But with a headset I can see how well it synchronizes with an SB3 (the
nettop is on wifi, thee SB3 is wired.)
Very fast, almost no cpu load, wonderful. I killed the process and
relauched it right away, it holds to the stream like a bulldog.
I tried setting SBS preferences to use smart fade-in and fade-out. This
doesn't work well on fade-in. The player stays silent and then starts to
play when volume has reached 100% (I suppose). I haven't noticed an
issue on fade out, but I am not too sure.
Fanstastic job.
Below some details on the server and player platform.
