Hi,

I'm experiencing (very rare) hickups. It sounds like a skipping CD player. When I skip backwards to hear it again its gone so it's really random. I suspect a malfunctioning harddrive. Is there any way to check if my assumptions are correct (surface scan or check for redirected blocks or something like that ?)

...Have you upgraded to the lastest release of the empeg software? There was a bug that was causing this with the shipping version of the software last week, but it has since been fixed. Check your empeg/emplode version - you should be up to Consumer Release 1.

This is almost certainly not a hard disk problem. Check you have the latest software, and if you continue to experience it email bugs@empeg.com with as many details as you can remember.
