Thanks very much!

I've had the chance to play now and managed to recreate the dropouts, making the following observations:

1) If I stream from the pi to either Logitech Media Server (LMS) or the i83 alone, everything works perfectly. I can monitor the buffer on the i83 and it remains full 99% of the time with only tiny dips from time to time.

2) If I stream to LMS then start streaming to the i83 I get frequent dropouts on the i83 but LMS continues to play perfectly. The buffer on the i83 constantly fluctuates, reaching 0 a couple of times per minute. If I stop streaming to LMS the i83 dropouts and buffer fluctuations continue.

3) If I stream to the i83 and then start streaming to LMS both play perfectly. The i83 buffer behaves the same as in scenario 1) above.

A final observation, both LMS and the i83 are a few seconds out of sync, with LMS leading.

Hope this is of some help in the diagnostics. Let me know if you'd like me to try anything else.

Thanks,

Phil
