FAB4 r5265 SB3 fw 125 SB Boom fw 45 Hello All, I was testing synchronization with FAB4 and other Squeezebox Devices, and was unable to get it to sync properly. Steps to recreate issue Connect FAB4 and any other Squeezebox Device to a computer running SqueezeCenter 7.4 25841 Go to settings Go to the Player's tab Choose the FAB4 Change the dropdown to Synchronization Choose to synchronize with another Squeezebox device Try to play music from FAB4 From here, you can see that the music is delayed on the FAB4. I tested this with and SB3 and Squeezebox Boom I also tested this using the SB3 and Squeezebox Boom as the masters as well. Thanks, LaRon

Very odd. I run with my Fab4 synced to a Boom nearly all the time and it syncs just fine. I mostly stream MP3 but I have tried nearly all formats. What formats are you trying to stream? Can you check the Settings / Player / <player> / Synchronization page for each player to ensure that no no-default values have been set for the various parameters. By the way, you cannot really choose the master, at least not without a detailed understanding of the algorithms used. SC chooses a suitable master for a sync-group based on a variety of conditions.
