    Duet and sync

    Just received my Duet and I love it. My new Audioengine A2's are no longer lonely. They look and sound great together.

    But I'm having a strange problem with sync that I don't recall seeing mentioned before. When I sync the Receiver to my SB3 (or vice-versa) from the Controller the Receiver starts playing each song exactly 30 seconds after the SB3.

    Weird.

      Weird indeed. I just synced a Transporter, SB2 and Squeezebox Receiver all with Jive and it sounds great.

      Reproducible?

          So far. I've tried 4 different syncs, 3 from the Controller and 1 from the browser with the same result. I haven't tried any serious troubleshooting yet, like restarting the server or syncing sources other than local files.

              If you manage to narrow down what might be causing it let me know I'd be happy to try reproducing. I'll give it a shot at home this weekend and see how it goes.

                  Can you say what the values are for each player (from Player Settings):
                  - Player Start Delay
                  - Player Audio Delay
                  - Minimum Synchronization Adjustment
                  - Network Packet Latency

                  I had some problems with these values being migrated incorrectly and being
                  off by a factor of 1000 due to changing from seconds to ms. This is
                  unlikely to be the problem for you.

                  You might want to enable player.sync debugging logging and capture a log for
                  diagnostic purposes.

                  Also, what is the network topology (wired, wireless).

                      I didn't think to look at those settings. They're 0, 0, 30, 2 for both players.

                      30. Hmmm. :-)

                      The SB3 is wired and the Receiver is wireless with a signal strength of 64. The Receiver has no problems with FLAC files.

                      I should note that I've been running SC7 for many weeks, updating roughly once a week. It's been many weeks since I did a completely fresh install by first deleting the saved prefs, so maybe it's some nightly-to-nightly pref migration issue.

                      I'll have a look at the debug option.

                      Thanks.

                          Here are some logs, with commentary by me preceded by ***. Player c2 is the SBR and f7 is the SB3.
