    Just make sure that it really is the one that came with your Touch - the Touch requires 5vdc input, and if you plug in a higher voltage supply you'll be sniffing majik smoke, and mourning the loss of your Squeezebox Touch.
    Tread very carefully ......

    It's a bona ride Mark Grant job, and it's been in situ for at least a couple of years.

    That's now got me thinking....does anyone still think it might be that causing the problem?

    in your setup my money would be on Tiny SC, reliable it isn't

    cheapest option I'd try is a PI runnning LMS instead

    Mark supplied me with the little plug that goes into the SB, so my old addled brain recalled the name and wrongly put that!

    It's one of those S Booster things, with the power supply.

    Edit to add: I just Googled Mark Grant, and yes he does supply them.
