There is nothing special about mplayer - it's just the app that was known to work with slimserver and works with all the main platforms/OS and the same app works for RealAudio, WMA, AAC and AACplus so it simplifies installation.
A specific feature of the current use of mplayer was that it enabled slimserver to strip off the icy message so that the SB displays the text that is in the streams (i.e usually saying what's playing). In the Slimserver context what specific advantages has gstreamer over mplayer ? -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40542 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
