I had the same problem but running Roon, Qobuz to Bricasti M1. My problem was running Roon core on my laptop which was wireless. I went with a dedicated music server (Small Green Computer) to run Roon and never looked back. The buffering on Bricasti cards is great. I doubt it has anything to do with Bricasti card. Not sure how other Roon like apps handle their meta data databases but I’m sure they run into processing / buffering issues without a local dedicated music server hardware. Hard wired or not the speed and traffic on your isp (internet) connection / modem may not be handling your home traffic well. In many cases you don’t notice as wait state on you other devices but with near realtime music it becomes pretty apparent.
Audirvana streaming
Hoping it is something minor. Earlier today I listened to music (Rock n Roll only) via my Dac and Cd transport, GREAT as usual. Then after an hour or so, I generally shift towards streaming, larger collection. I'm hoping Quboz or Audirvana had streaming issues. I stream via my Bricasti M1SE with network card. I had some songs load and play for 20 seconds and just stop, start again and then stop period, Songs would start and play for 30 seconds and then end; when the songs duration was 6 minutes???????? Don't laugh, but, I am always assured when playing The Eagles, HOTEL California, or Victim Of Love (2 of my Favorites) for those 2 songs to most always stop after a few minutes and not run their full length. It always seem to be some issue. I have great WI-FI, and great Ethernet (hard wired too) Don't know if there is a time of day thing ? (tooooo many users?) Has anyone else had these issues or similar? Due to the fact that today was unusually horrific it has me thinking about going elsewhere for streaming, which I really don't want to. When Audirvana works it's great sounding. Don't know if another service requires you to download all your songs again, or my songs with Quboz would automatically be transferred to new service??? Bricasti mentions that they and Audirvana play well together. Thank all as usual. Robert TN
