Hi Anton, Thank you for your interest. I have switched to a new branch and several new features/fixes are integrated. Could you test this one, if you'd like? https://github.com/hfujita/pulseaudio-raop2/commits/raop2-for-merge The following command should allow you to switch to the latest branch. $ cd pulseaudio-raop2 $ git fetch origin $ git checkout -b raop2-for-merge origin/raop2-for-merge Or you can simply clone the whole tree again (assuming that your internet connection to github is fast enough.)

This might be fixed by the latest patch I showed before, as they introduce packet retransmission and more precise timing calculation. > Looks like XBMC uses libshairport and it might be a interesting project > to write a module using that to receive raop to pulseaudio? Could be interesting, but my current interest is to use Linux machine as an audio source, not the sink. Also it's beyond my capability right now. > > > //Anton > > Thanks, Hajime
