Title: remote streaming slow in newest version?
Post by: laerm on June 06, 2012, 03:52:10 pm

Hello --

Last Wednesday, things were streaming fine remotely. Today, after upgrading both client and library, buffering takes 30-45 seconds before playback. I'm streaming VBR mp3s here -- this ain't HD video. Unless my home computer suddenly decided to turn into a 56k modem, I shouldn't have an issue.  ? Has anyone else noticed anything?

Thanks very much --
Micah

EDIT: I am not on the same network as the library, but my connection here at the office is about as robust as they come.

Addendum: MC is actually frozen while it's...well, I don't know what it's doing, but, when I doubleclick a song to play it, it then locks up for just under a minute, then it goes to "buffering" which takes around 30 seconds, then it starts playing. Server issue? Anyone? Halp?

A lone voice, crying in the dark... (Sorry for the dramatic moment.  :P )

Streaming works fine from Gizmo in two locations but it does not work from MC in the same two locations, so it's not a bandwidth or machine issue on the server side. So I'll just keep on thinking and see if I can come up with anything else. If anyone else has an opinion, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks...
