My personal belief is that the issue arises from a change to Windows from Win 8 onwards and system with 4 or mores cores. I think something has changed under the Windows hood that makes transcoding using socketwrapper behave differently. I don't have a Win8 or Win10 system so I have not been able to reproduce the issues.

I could have easily sorted that by forcing everybody (ie. change the repos to make LMS do the upgrade) but then I have made a stick to beat myself as all sorts of issues would be reported and would have to be resolved. There is no "stable" version because BBC keeps tweaking DASH. To fix a BBC chnage 1.4.10 was created in Feb same time as 1.5.3 and both have been as stable as each other. 1.5.4.* has added features DASH Flac and as such needed testing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
