Hi Adam,
Really appreciate you having a look at this .... I am not having much luck
getting this going at all.
By the way, what size cache is good for livepause? I find having no cache
gives me jumpy playback after a time, cache=8192 seems good, and what size
livepause buffer should I use, I am currently using the default 2G ...
Cheers,
bernie
