The buffer on a real player does get used. With libspotify the data appears to be rate limited to arrive at something like 50% faster than real time, so you should see the data being written straight out at the start of a track (as it fills the large buffer in SP), but that the stream debug starts to go into buffering state after several seconds as at this point the player buffer has filled and its the player which is controlling the rate, not the rate data arrives from spotify. This means you will see a difference with spotify compared to local file playback as the max arrival rate at the start of the track. Happy to discuss off line as its probably not relevant to most people here... -- Triode ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79706 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
