Help--Thinking of Returning Boxee after 2 days

[tempmember]

I would certainly wait until all the scanning/identifying have completed.

Scanning has seemed to stalled as it hasn't added any new Artists or Albums to the original 110 since yesterday afternoon (about 18 hours now). I've tried restarting BB, and running scan again, but nothing happens.

My Macbook has been on wireless the whole time, so I'm wondering if it should be wired to the network and start over from scratch? (But what about when I add new media--I'm not so confident about BB's ability to scan and add new material now as this will be the second time I've unsuccessfully scanned my music files from iTunes)...will give it one more try before giving up on BB.

What is the bit-rate of the files? I've noticed that Boxee likes 16-bit files better than 24-bit files, although there is still some stuttering with 16-bit files. And at double the khz, 96khz, lead to more stuttering. Have you tried and had any problems with the 24-bit files?

16 bit = standard audio cd
24 bit = non standard audio cd / dvd audio

My setup is a boxee box running on a hardwired network via SMB for 6+ months now. I have no issue playing FLAC in 16bit or 24bit, and I definitely do not have any issues playing MP3s.
