Hi all. Looking for help with streaming or playing music over wireless network. Hardware: Compaq Presario Intel Pentium T4500 Laptop Audio Advantage Micro II USB sound card by Turtle Beach Yamaha RX-V863 Software: Windows 7 Foobar2000 WMP if required FLAC MP3 I want to use laptop to play music located on desktop wirelessly, through my AVR/speakers. I bought a Turle Beach Micro II USB dongle with outputs 3.5mm analog OR digital (spdif) via TOSLINK. Here is what I have tried: I shared my FLAC folder on the desktop with Homegroup (windows 7). I add files to foobar on the laptop from this shared folder. here are my issues: FLAC files 'freeze' randomly for about a second or less. Usually at LEAST once per song. It is not the file because if I play it back, it won't do it again in the same place, and they play fine when I stream to PS3. It seems to be a problem with foobar or my laptop because I see the EQ visualization display freezing during this time as well. MP3s do not have this freezing problem I can't get the optical output to work on the laptop/micro II. The cable and AVR are not the problem because when I plug the same cable into my PS2, I get sound right away. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you.
