I have a Squeezebox 3 on wireless and a Squeezebox Radio on wire. Both works fine and the stream plays through no problem on both. The only problem is high cpu on the mplayer thread. If I play on both squeezeboxs the same time, "top" command will show 2 mplayer threads running close to 100% each. I used to be running Ubuntu 8.04 on the same motherboard. Didn't see this problem before. On the old system, transcoding was taking ~4% only. Bought a bigger hard drive and did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. All installation was uneventful and straight forward with Ubuntu recognises all components of the system and working fine. For the moment, I have enabled "native" playback of wma. However, there is 2 stations I could not connect with "native" wma. http://www.am1430.com/Archive/fm889.asx http://www.am1430.com/Archive/am1430.asx Although both my players support wma, for some unknown reason, these stations can only be connected with transcoding enabled. Is there any way to connect to these stations without transcoding? Do you think compiling mplayer from source code would help? -- Honva ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Honva's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14948 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87686 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
