I have xbmc installed on a Revo Acer 3600 in my bedroom. My media is sitting on a Synology NAS in the lounge in the next room. My database and media both sit on the NAS (i.e. remote mysql database)
When playing media wirelessly, at first it works wonders, but it always ends up freezing and xbmc just seems to completely freeze.
I've checked the debug log, and this is what I'm seeing:
It's pretty clear from the log that xbmc is complaining that it can't get any new data packets. However this ONLY happens when playing media. If I copy stuff wirelessly, it can copy for hours without fault.
I know you might say that media requires a certain amount of bits per second. Correct, but I get the same freezing whether I'm testing a 1080p file or a standard '320p' file. Also it ALWAYS seems to happen roughly 6 - 8 minutes after I start playback, no matter if it's HD or regular.
The wireless card on the Revo is a 54Mbps capable card and my router is a WRT-54GL with dd-wrt installed. I get anything between 24Mbps to 54Mbps
