Ok... Perhaps here is a clue to the issue with the Samsung devices... This is a quote from an e-mail from Peter @ Concevia Support while I was working through my own Samsung C series issue with the later 2600 upgrades.
Hi Mark,
That is good news, please let us know if you can isolate the network problem and determine why it is so poor. The Samsung devices are very sensitive to network timing, Sony devices are more robust and will tolerate a higher latency in network communication.
My network issue was this... My Samsung device was some ways away from media server - wireless. Prior to these upgrades, it played files just fine. I fixed my network issue by hard wiring to the Samsung device. My issue is resolved.
My question... What changes did Concevia make to Mezzmo to cause the Samsung device to react to be "sensitive to network timing" to become an issue? I will assume whatever change that was made was made as an enhancement. I assume it was done with the best of intentions. And I really appreciate the effort to work through the issue. But what we could really use is an AK-47 version of Mezzmo and not an M-16 version. We don't need the perfect version of Mezzmo, just one that plays effortlessly. Perhaps a different development approach is needed...
A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom.
