[QUOTE="MageMinds, post: 647558, member: 30288"] You seem to have a really great network! Maybe there are some package that you install on Windows that will handle that... But I don't know... I'm thinking of a layer between Windows and the application, where the application request a file to Windows and then the software get the file as fast as it can even if the application is not requesting is. Thus caching the file locally. I see that VLC have some kind of caching, I'm guessing that it speed up the decoding and playback the result at normal speed... The problem I see with that is that you loose the whole network. I think VLC would work with fluctuating latency on the network, but not loosing the connection. Does the states in the router get disconnected also, do you know for sure that the connection is lost completely, like your wireless card need to reconnect with the access point? I've done a quick search on Google and I can't find anything that will cope with a file transfer being interrupted mid-point by a network failure. rsync would only sync the folder on that server... But yes it would sync the whole folder, you could make some sort of ignore list, but I sure you're looking for a simple solution... Like showing your friend folder in MP and from the menu select what you want to listen... Do you know what is exactly the network problem? Is it on your end or one of the routers on the network the give up? [/QUOTE]
