iTunes, Buffering....buffering


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

So I just finished upgrading my entire library to iTunes Plus to make my network streaming a little easier, works fantastically on my PS3 and 360, but not on my PC. Audio cuts out every 10 seconds or so to buffer (see screenshot), this stays for about 20 seconds then the audio begins playing again, then stops again, then starts again then stops and so on.

Anyone have any advice of what I can do to improve this?

Thanks

If your PS3 and 360 work well, it sounds like your PC might have a poor network connection. Seems weird, because that would be a lot of latency, but it's the only thing I can think of. iTunes Plus files are much higher bitrate than your original iTMS songs, so...

Well, my PC is ethernet wired and can easily pull 150 - 200 Mb/s over the network from my NAS drive. It's gotta be an iTunes issue because if I 'browse' to the directory and play with VLC or MPC:HC it plays fine!

Weird. I only said that because I do it all the time on a 144 Mb/s (wireless) connection without any problems. :hmmm:

I don't have any more ideas. :unsure:
