Many thanks bpa The point of my previous post was that data from the same URL plays OK as a simple MP3 file in the songs directory but not as a radio stream. Doesn't this point to mishandling within the radio streams processing (plugins?) ? Tne radio streams go via Mplayer don't they? Using v 1.0rc2-4.2.1, dated 09 October 2007, 15:22:26.
chrislayeruk is also saying podcasts fail on his SB3. BTW I've no slimSevices hardware myself at the moment, so stuck with SSq. Hope to rectify shortly... Re other query - need to pause then play before (many) radio streams will proceed. Other recent posts on this suggest it is a SSq only issue, and OK on SB3. However, again I never had this problem on SS6.5/SSq3.4 and could mess with BBC streams without any need to 'poke' the system to make it go! I've zapped my SS6.5 install .exe so can't go back - where can I get it now - I want to re-test with previous versions. Bed time Reading: Sorry my queries are a bit wooly - need a better understanding of the architecture of this stuff - do you know if there's a doc somewhere that details the data/stream paths and formats involved for typical playing scenarios? and how these relate to the file types settings page. Are the various Perl scripts involved in the plugins themselves processing/piping stream/audio data, or are they only constructing command lines for and starting other processes - eg Mplayer?
