Description Julius Dauz 2008-12-17 16:02:18 UTC

A customer reported this to me and I was able to reproduce it to an extent.

The customer experiences this with all his files. I was able to reproduce this issue with a couple of files from the same album that was ripped in Apple Lossless format then transferred to the ReadyNAS.

The issue is between tracks the customer hears a sort of distortion or clicking sound. 

Attached is a sample file that I was able to reproduce the problem with.

Do you know what exact SC build he's using and whether he's trying to transcode to lame (see bug 10293)? The ReadyNAS can't cope with the load. Try disabling alac/flac transcoding in favor of alac/wav (Settings/Advanced/File types)

Steven can you test this one out please.

Comment 4 Julius Dauz 2008-12-22 14:34:00 UTC

He went from SC 7.2 to 7.3. He tried 7.2.1 before 7.3, but that also exhibited the same issues. He is back on 7.2 for now because he states the issues were not apparent in that version.

Comment 5 Spies Steven 2008-12-22 14:56:47 UTC

Julius, this issue should be fixed in the 7.3.1 release version of SqueezeCenter.  There are a couple of ReadyNAS specific fixes in this release that deal with streaming and file types.

Comment 6 Chris Owens 2009-07-31 10:33:31 UTC

Reduce number of active targets for SC
