Still doesn't really explain why spotty break while "Listen
again"/podcast which download huge chunks of data at a time until all
buffers in players & intermediates are full, and as player plays & asks
for more, it is trickled through - this doesn't cause watchdog timeout.

Not easy to do without changing lots of LMS code or Spotty plugin having
Pipeline code like AlienBBC which played RealAudio - used to have .
The code below is old and out of date however since it starts with
"*use base qw(Slim::Player::Pipeline);*" and
and then the "*my $self = $class->SUPER::new(undef, $command);*" in
current LMS could have a "local" param.
Code:
--------------------
package Plugins::Alien::RTSP;
use strict;
use base qw(Slim::Player::Pipeline);
use Slim::Utils::Strings qw(string);
use Slim::Utils::Misc;
use Slim::Utils::Log;
use Slim::Utils::Prefs;
use Plugins::Alien::RTSPScanHeaders;
my $log = logger('plugin.alienbbc');
Slim::Player::ProtocolHandlers->registerHandler('rtsp', __PACKAGE__);
Slim::Formats::Playlists->registerParser('rtsppl',
'Plugins::Alien::Playlists::RTSPPL');
Slim::Formats::Playlists->registerParser('smilpl',
'Plugins::Alien::Playlists::SMIL');

# Check client - only stream to known slim clients
if (!defined($client) || !$client->isPlayer()) {
$log->warn("Alien only streams to Slim players");
return undef;
}
Slim::Music::Info::setContentType($url, 'rtsp');
my $track = Slim::Schema->rs('Track')->objectForUrl({
'url' => $url,
'readTags' => 1
});
$client->pluginData( currentTrack => $track );
# RTSP URL headers are scanned but it usually completes after "new" is called
except when a Seek hgas been done
# then the RTSP URL is nOT scanned and so we need to use RTSP metadata
if ( $rtspmetadata->{scannedurl} eq $url) {
if ( defined ($rtspmetadata->{'endtime'})) {
$client->streamingProgressBar( {
'url' => $url,
'bitrate' => $rtspmetadata->{'avgbitrate'} ,
'duration'=>
int($rtspmetadata->{'endtime'}/1000),
} );
};
}
my ($command, $type, $format) =
Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand($client, $url);
unless (defined($command) && $command ne '-') {
$log->warn("Couldn't find conversion command for $url");

}
