Are you in the UK or outside the UK. If outside the UK are you using some sort of VPN to get good quality UK stream ?
1. The stream is not "obviously WMA" as if you are outside the UK WMA streams are 48kbps and AAC streams are 56kbps. Radiotime can insert their own metadata so presence of pictures, data etc. cannot be used to decide the stream format. 2. There is no http/mp3 BBC stream (IIRC there may still be a Flash/mp3 stream for UK listerners). The Radiotime URL just lists the formats that the player can play - not the formats that are available from the station. 3. The BBC iPlayer can choose different formats depends on the plug settings so unless you check the settings you cpould be getting. 128kbps AAC or WMA is only available to UK listeners. 4. Wifi signal may still be a problem - just because you can play a 320kbps MP3 does not measn you can play a 750kbps Flac which is what transcoded AAC. You need to get more precision with your investigation and definitively eliminate some possibiltiies. So far you have not done so regarding AAC vs WMA or Wifi. Check the BBC IPlayer settings and change the settings to no transcoding and WMA. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97350 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
