hi stereoptic, Thanks for you detailed explanation. Yes, try the latest software, fingers crossed it will help you. As a side note, I would never try to get 192 streaming over the internet. Where I live, the internet speed isn't sufficient to give reliable service. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
