Audio Dropouts
Hi - Having SERIOUS issues with my RIPNAS Statement playing through my Linn DS system...
Here are the facts....
I have a RIPNAS Statement with HDD - it also has 2 x USB disks (another 1tb in total) attached and the drive is extended to include them.
I do not mirror.
I'm on the latest version of Asset.
I have 110000 tracks - all FLAC
I have 2 x Linn DS - a Klimax and a Sneaky
Both DS are set to PLAYLIST
I use various Control Points - mainly Kinsky and Chorus, on both iPad and iPhone.
I've rebuilt the database several times - no better - although the process is much quicker in asset 4
Network backbone is gigabit.
DS and RIPNAS are connected to different Netgear Switches
I experience dropouts at the end of every track - like gapless isn't working - and also a dropout at random points in just about every track.
The dropouts happen on 16 bit and 24 bit.
I've had the problem for several months - but it's getting worse.
Happy to send screenshots of configuration as required...
Any suggestions? ...seems I'm not the only one with these issues.

Re: Audio Dropouts
Enable debug for Asset (advanced configuration options >> general settings), restart asset, play a track to the end and allow the 2nd track to start, then copy the debug information here please.

RIPNAS has now recovered from its near death experience - but these issues remain - recently replaced both switches in the network (now Netgear GS108) but no improvement...
...has the log yielded any clues?

Re: Audio Dropouts
It gave some hints (it seems the player is requesting the file 2 or 3 times...), so something is not quite right. I have another beta to get out the door then I can look at R4.1 of Asset

Very interesting - additional background - both the Klimax DS and the Sneaky DS have the issue...

Re: Sorry, what
Intrigued by the 4.1 update to asset referring to a memory leak - i wonder if this will fix my (still persistent) problem?

Re: Sorry, what
Will do - can you point me to where i might find the WHS beta? ...the linked one refers to win7 and Vista...

Re: Sorry, what
Install the Windows 7 version on WHS through remote desktop.

Re: Sorry, what
Installed the Win7 version (after first uninstalling the WHS version) and....
...still dropping out like mad...
Twonky running from my Mac remains rock solid - RIPNAS hardware fault?

Re: Sorry, what
Difficult to say, you would have to try Asset on a computer that is not the RipNAS, even the mac with crossover.
