I suspect that setting may be more important for video than radio. Since buffering happens on a 48kbps stream I receive on a 10Mbps link - the issue is not network speed or latency but delays at source. For non UK the streams sources are different than UK listeners ( e.g. rtmp://cp60697.live.edgefcs.net:1935 ) so there may be different issues than UK listeners. I believe there is an initial burst of audio data which helps initialise player settings (e.g. format, channels etc) and then a delay before the main stream of data comes online. I think I'll have to compare setup protocol exchanges between browser player startup and BBCiPlayer startup to see if there is a delay or whether there is some sort of special request or setting which is being used by the browser player. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67098 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
