As
far as Raspberry Pi in general, many of these issues are power
supply related, both voltage (there is a drop through many leads
and current output. I would review my power supply first.
Yes, I'm aware of power supply problems. I usually use commercial 5V
power supplies, or DC-DC converters from 12V. Here, it's just a test
setup. And in order to avoid power problems, I'm using two official
Rspberry Foundation power supplies, with their attached power cord.
About USB cords, I really understood that when I bought a tiny USB
voltmeter/ammeter on a famous Chines marketplace. This clearly shows
USB cords are not equal. And even "branded" cords have very thin
copper gauge, which generates huge voltage drops. I usually buy my
USB cords from the brand "Aukey", which has serious 20AWG wires.
Then, it's not a power supply problem, and it's not a cord problem.
And, as far as ambed and AMBEserver are two completely different
software, I don't think it's a software problem.
I did not get much answer on the XLX forum. It seems several people
are using second hand PCs. Anyway, as I want to connect it in my 42U
rack in my data center housing, two PCs would take too much room.
I'd like to install the two AMBE transcoders in a rackable 1U
cabinet. That's why I'm trying to use them with mini-machines such
as RPis

I've just connected the two ThumbDVs through powered USB hubs. Let's
see what happens ;-)
If it happens again, I'll try to find some error in the logs, which
would allow me to track the problem more seriously than waiting for
a few hours, and listening if audio is scrambled or not...
