This month I installed the MP1 server on my server machine and MP1 as clients in machines 2 and 3. In both clients, playback is generally OK as long as I don't skip forward or backwards. While skipping backwards, it may return to the same spot in the recording, or it skips a bit then playback freezes... but I can unstick it sometimes via pause / play or skipping forward again. It's just cranky. Skipping on the server machine works gloriously well on the same programs.
On machine 3, the playback sometimes gets into a mode where it freezes for 200 to 300 ms every couple of seconds or so. I don't know if this is related. It does not happen on machine 2, so I was assuming this was an unrelated problem.
Is this the quality of my network link? I have a new WNDR4500v2 router. I noticed the network card on the server stopped working and the windows LAN troubleshooter reset it and it worked again. Can a cheap network card cause this kind of thing?
thanks
