Buffering in Music 01
« on: January 31, 2002, 11:38:30 am »

Accessing my home library thru Music 01 at the office, as selected files play the sound becomes progressively choppier during the day. Not the normal rebuffering breaks, but a regular rhythymic fluctuation, till I close MJ out. When I reopen and reaccess my library, files play fine, with only occasional buffering.

Max size for files selected to play is 128 kbps. Maximum skip resistance is selected in settings for playback. EQ is off, DSP on with Izotope Ozone plug-in activated.

Are there any further adjustments I should make to minimize this?

Thnx....HTH

What is the ozone layer and why is it important?

The ozone layer is a concentration of ozone molecules in the stratosphere. About 90% of the planet's ozone is in the ozone layer. The layer of the Earth's atmosphere that surrounds us is called the troposphere. The stratosphere, the next higher layer, extends about 10-50 kilometers above the Earth's surface. Stratospheric ozone is a naturally-occurring gas that filters the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation. A diminished ozone layer allows more radiation to reach the Earth's surface. For people, overexposure to UV rays can lead to skin cancer, cataracts, and weakened immune systems. Increased UV can also lead to reduced crop yield and disruptions in the marine food chain. UV also has other harmful effects.

Winamp plug-in - Analog Modeling System.


"....a plug-in for Winamp, Ozone adds warmth, bass, sparkle and an overall desirable sound to your MP3s. Unlike other "enhancers", it does so by modeling the analog characteristics of vintage audio equipment such as tube amplifiers and valve equalizers. So instead of sounding harsh and hollow, your music sounds deep and full. "

Really does make a difference in the sound. That shouldn't be a factor- I have no difficulties with playback on the home computer.

PS:  King - thanks for the science refresher. I cut class the first time through.

I think Ozone gives it a more mellow tone. Probably all in my head.
