It sounds like the stream is not plain MPEG-4 but because ffmpeg can handle different formats - it is "accidentally" working using playMP4 as ffmpeg. What is the URL of the stream being played ? Use logging player.source to INFO to show the command line being used and the URL attentped to be played so I can checkl. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88286 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
