Expectations?

Howdy,

New face here, and I'm wondering if my situation is on par, or I've got more to do?

i've got one of the Tiger Direct refurbs and a windows 2000 box. Works great with ARM, but my collection is much too large for the indexing bug. So I've set up Jreceiver 0.2.5 and trio 0.1.3Alpha. But my actual music library is located on another machine across my LAN. When I play with the Jreceiver/Trio combo, I get stuttered playback, and the trio log reports (once or twice a second):

Exception processing data request: java.net.socketException: Interrupted function call: Datagram Send Failed.

Is this my fault for sourcing the stream externally, or have I munged my Java setup? My processor is sitting @ 30% until I do a track/artist request, so I don't think it's hardware.

Would there be a better sever/client combo for this setup?

thanks

I actually run a similar set up to yours and don't experience any problems at all.

Please send me a copy of your trio.xml along with the ip addresses of the machines involved. Also let me know if there's anything unusual about your network (wireless routers etc.).

Cheers

Maybe his network equipment just isn't as fast as yours. In that scenario, I could envision a slow 10mbps half-duplex hub getting too much saturation if all the files were high-bitrate, which would tend to cause skips and dropouts I'd imagine.

It could also be that the Java garbage collector is thrashing and needs a larger initial heap. See the JRec server troubleshooting page for more details.

Thanks for the all ideas... I got layed off, so I won't be able to troubleshoot this installation anymore - I was using the Receiver at work. I should have it up and running here at home soon enough, but I'm hoping I won't have the same problems.

The network was fast, 100T switch.

Thanks.
