ericuco Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Here is a graph of data traffic for my Ubuntu Studio 20.04 server running HQP Desktop and Roon Server. I have a Intel X520-DA1 fiber optic card installed running at 10Gbe and connected to a 10Gbe port on my Mikrotik switch. My opticalRendu (HQP NAA) is connected to the same switch running at 1Gbe. Music files are stored on a NAS. There is definitely a spike when it loads a new track. RX=top line TX=bottom line. The spike occurs several seconds before the new track actually plays.

ericuco Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 12 hours ago, The Computer Audiophile said: For those with spikes during playback, does the entire track get sent, thus enabling the cable to be pulled (if you actually wanted)? I was monitoring the network traffic as the last track finished up and there was a continuous small amount of inbound (RX) traffic until maybe 5 -10 seconds before the track ended then the traffic dropped to basically nothing. So it appears that a chuck of the file is loaded (buffered) well before it starts playing (thus the spike) then a constant stream after that.
