Are you in the UK ? This should only affect live streams. It is a problem only with Windows systems mainly 10 but I suspect also 8 but oddly not all configurations. I don't have a Windows 10 system so I can't reproduce it nor debug it. I'm pretty sure the problem is due to a change in Windows process scheduling made in Win8/10 and it has affected the LMS support app socketwrapper. It will only be fixed by me when I get a Win 10 system - however for the moment my Win7 is adequate. Try reducing buffer fullness down to 50 - it will speed start up but too small also causes break-ups. If you are in the UK make sure you have the "use highest speed" preference. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109351 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
