Yes, I installed softsqueeze version 1:1.0-relsvn20070225-0.3etch1. With a version number like that, how could it not work! I can't explain why kera started working on my SB3 after the installation. I tried it several times before and it failed. Originally it did work fine but only over Squeeze Network. When it was failing on the SB3, it seemed to have trouble transitioning from the station introduction to actually playing the stream. Now I notice that there is no station introduction that gets played, it just goes right to the main stream. Could the AlienBBC intstallation help with this somehow?
I played around with the full list of local internet radio stations last night. All of the ones that worked were mp3 or a .m3u file. The troublesome stations were all listed as wma. The server seems to think it has connected with the station. Even softsqueeze seems somewhat fooled because there is no longer an error message and the timer is incrementing as if something is playing. Out of many tries and a number of stations, I did get one station to play that was listed as a wma. When I tried the same station later it wouldn't work again. This morning I can't get KERA to play through softsqueeze and it worked fine last night. All still works on my SB3. I've never had trouble with softsqueeze before but I really only used it for playing from my local music library. I wonder if it is a timing issue and maybe my old machine is a little to slow. The cpu utilization looks fine but memory is tight. I'm still hoping there is a software issue that can be resolved. Does the extension plugin or AlienBBC have any version requirements for linux packages? Softsqueeze works so well with my local libraries. Upgrading to Squeezecenter 7.3.2 motivated me to learn some new tricks with this toy. I connected with my University radio station this week that I haven't heard in 25 years. The internet radio stuff is fun and it would be nice if softsqueeze could play it too. Thanks for any help you can give. -- eschurig ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eschurig's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2175 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60471 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
