Bought a NetGear ReadyNAS Duo on Thursday with a view to moving my Itunes library onto it and using that to stream to the squeezeboxes throughout the house. All that now works (teething issues not needing to be mentioned here).
Sooooo, i decided i could try and keep my main library on the NAS (rather than keeping it on main PC and syncing the libraries once a week, which wouldn't really be a big hassle, but i like the idea of being able to play with my main library from laptop).
But accessing the itunes library makes everything take an age. A song will take 5-10 secs (to locate? to buffer?) before playing, and if i skip tracks i get the same again. Not exactly ideal.
Anyone have any ideas?
(The squeezebox setup works perfectly, no lag whatsoever).
