Interesting. I've been noticing a number of small dropouts this afternoon, using the PCM approach. I don't know if this is because I'm using PCM, or if ffmpeg is missing segments, or BBC issues, or what. Now, if your HLS parsing efforts could be wound into LMS, 'natively', handling all stream variants, that would be a score ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103158 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
