The problem that I have is with the Galleon 1.9.2 music app. When streaming MP3's, the audio "skips" in the middle of tracks or the beginning of tracks are garbled.

I am using a 100 Mbps wired network with no other nodes on the network beside the Tivo and my PC. I changed the MTU setting on my NIC to 1500, however it has not helped.

One thing that I have noticed, is that Galleon streams the music track second by second in real time to the Tivo unit. If there is any packet loss, it will show up as a skip.

One resolution may be to raise the priority of the Galleon processes. Another may be to force the Tivo the buffer the MP3 file. That way skips would not happen because of a few missed packets.

Thank you for any advice that you may have.

I can't believe that I'm the only one having this problem.

If you ripped the mp3's from your CD's maybe this will help:

I ripped them using iTunes and I have a wired, not a wireless network.

The problem lies with how Galleon and Tivo buffer the mp3 files.

I am having similar problems on my wireless network.

worked great on day one. now everytime i enter the photos, music and more menu... everything is sluggish and the music takes for ever to load and skips.

my wireless connection is at 92% at its lowest.
