Solved it!! I thought my network was ok and for normal interneting that was the case but it seems airplay needs a more stable and fast (upload) connection. I placed a new accespoint a TL-WA801ND (router -> networkcable->accespoint->wifi) in the room where my Raspyfi is. And now everything works perfect. A little tip for people who want the best wifi adapter the TL-WA801ND is also capable op being a client so you get a far superiour wifi adapter with its own powersupply and better reception then any wifi dongle you can find, it is connected trough the network input on your Raspberry Pi

Is Airplay working good with other users? I would like to know because in my setup i have lot's of trouble with clipping using airplay. My Pi is connected on with a cable on my router (TP Link WR1043ND) and my ipad is connected with wifi and shows maximum signal. I have already tried to put my router to Channel Width: 20MHz but it didn't make a difference.

I hope other people are having better luck?

Hi I love using the airplay function, for when i have visitors that want to play music thats not in my playlist. It seems to work but I have problems that every clip I play 3 or 4 times hangs a second and then continues playing the total clip. The wifi on my ipad shows maximum signal. Do other users exprience the same behavior? off topic I read that the update library function is slower than before. I updated my library for the second time because i deleted a folder witch contained one album. It took the system several hours to update my library. Isn't that a bit slow for one changed folder?

Loving the rest:-)
