I've been home the last few days recuperating from some minor surgery, so have had time to set it up & play with it. Today I set it into PartyMode to play my music all day from my NAS (FLAC or high BR mp3s), and am hearing a lot of dropouts in many of the songs (most of which I ripped myself) I went into Audio setting & changed Optimized from High to Medium, but that didn't seem to help any. I've never seen this with any of my Windoze boxes, WDLive, or my Tronsmart S-89-H Android box.Any suggestions on what to do/look for?
Are you using a wireless connection? It sounds like network dropouts to me. I listen to high res FLAC all the time over the network (ethernet) without incident.
Also, I'm curious as to why only Confluence is available under Kodi openelec, while Android & PC Helix had quite a few. None of the current skins are compatible yet?
Well, that's confusing then...the box is plenty powerful enough to handle Flac without any dropouts. Maybe a bad ethernet cable? Skins are available, you need to add the unofficial repository, or install them as .zip files. Does your NAS have plenty of power under the hood?
