Will Squeezebox Touch play iTunes from USB Drive?

It's having the same issues with ethernet connection; re-buffering, non-resonisve,...etc.

These Squeezebox devices are garbage. I've experienced nothing but playback issues with them. They're a perfect solution if and when they work, but for the most part useless if unable to play music w/o interruptions.

I have used the Touch in 3 systems, wired and wireless, and not had any problems. If you are having problems, it is external to the SBT or, possibly, you have a defective one.

Kr4: Yes, something weird is going on to have the same issue with SB3 and SBT three years apart, or both defective. What are the odds. Are you streaming from iTunes library? What file format?

To anyone: Is there a way to set up the SBT to stream wirelessly direct from my iMac since it has Airport built in? Also, will using ethernet between SBT and iMac work?

Odds are it is something indigenous to your system or setup. Have you streamed anything successfully with other hardware?

Are you streaming from iTunes library?

I did briefly but I do not use iTunes, in general.

What file format?

FLAC and WAV

Only AppleTV before and streaming video to iMac. Audio only with Squeezebox. I've tried various settings with AEBS (802.11n 2.4 and 5 GHz ONLY w/ 6 Mbps, also b/g compatible w/ 1 Mbps) and it still rebuffers. It's behavior is erratic which suggests there's something changing at certain times to cause this. Sometimes it'll go for 20-30 minutes and then start acting up, or not for an hour or so. And sometimes it'll happen every 5-10 secs and go on for minutes like that. There's only 2-3 wireless clients at a time; iMac SBT, and laptop.
