previous mini boombox has a lag when watching video - connected via bluetooth. I read somewhere that this new one does not. Can anyone confirm?

I've had mine for over a year and have had no problems with it ! It is really cool ! I even took it to Bermuda and streamed music by the pool :)

I have the same problem which is one of the big reasons it got a low review from me and probably why it was included for free with the Bluetooth bundle I bought -(especially considering it isn't a Bluetooth device at all!). I wouldn't expect anything else from it - ours sits in a drawer waiting for the day we need to have less volume coming from our iPhone.

My Radio has difficulty connecting to My SqueezeBox.com sometimes.....my Boombox doesn't...... I am beginning to doubt I'll be able to use the radio on my screen porch while I'm in my pool ( the reason I bought the radio )...too frustrating to interrupt swimming to mess with the radio. Last summer I used my itouch to play Pandora or my Nokia internet tablet Rhapsody App on my porch and they worked great...but I liked my Boombox and the Radio would have been simpler with it's speakers and rechargeable battery ( eventually)

please post a review! I'm debating on whether to get this, not sure if it's the same as a regular old bluetooth adapter (which is much cheaper) and can't seem to find any information about it.

Hmm. Sounds like the bluetooth connection is not solid. Can you try another device, maybe someone else's phone or ipad? If it doesn't skip with the second one then the phone of the first one may be incommpatible. If the second one skips too then the speaker is bad. The one I bought sounds great and there shouldn't be any skipping.

yeah, mine looks good but has no audio in realplayer. maybe someone will answer. i get audio with the software included but may not always have access to it when trying to play back.

I had a similar experience. The bluetooth connection worked fine for the first couple of weeks. But then during playback it would suddenly begin producing something that sounded like feedback. The unit also began losing the bluetooth connection. I shipped the unit back to Nuforce (which cost me $30) and they replaced it. But the replacement unit has also produced the feedback sound a couple of times and sometimes loses the bluetooth connection. Nuforce needs to do better.

I've seen many reviews on different bluetooth headsets and the same complaints are with itunes not working right.......evidently it may be something with itunes, not your PC.

Check you phone's BT settings. Sometimes the box for media is unchecked on the phone bluetooth entry for the headset. This happened to me once -the phone was working and the music wasn't. I opened BT settings and saw that the box for media for my earphones was unchecked. Once I checked it --the music flowed smoothly!

I was able to watch through a web browser without too much fuss.. however though there was unbearable lag and no way around it. I recommend sticking with bluetooth for video oriented audio (videos/movies/youtube/etc) I bought Creative ZiiSound D3x Bluetooth Wireless Speaker and couldn't be happier. Hope this helps

Yes there is a delay. However it catches up after sometime. Before you start watching the video, play something else for a few minutes so that the headphones sync themselves with the Tv or laptop. Once synced you will not see any delay. However i have also experienced delays if I pause the video and resume after 10-15 mins. If you cannot wait for audio-video to sync then you can always use the wires to connect instead of bluetooth.

Mine does the same thing and my sub doesn't work on Bluetooth. Not sure what the problem is I was thinking it was a manufacture problem.

I use an I-POD to send MP-3's to the Boombox. I wet the I-POD to shuffle and have not had a problem. Never tried playing an album at a time. Good Luck.

I purchased this speaker and loved it for a month or two then it would no longer connect. I thought it was the USB receiver so I purchased a replacement. Still no connection :( . I researched trouble shooting to no avail. Speaker does work on Bluetooth though. ???
