AFAICT The error messages do not apply to your problem - if decoder is not suppoorted then streamn would not play at all. So for the decoder error on device with MAC address " b8:27:eb:21:e7:17" - at a guess this is a soft player which has been set up wrong possibly missing libraries. WRT the "Listen Again" problem. When BBCiPlayer starts a "listen Again" stream it preloads buffers and then once enough has been fetched, it starts playing, it fetches 6 sec chunks as required. BBC servers can have problems with delays delivering packet as long as 30 sec and occassionbaly over 3 minutes which means player buffers run out. It is possible this is your issue. To confirm the problem, I suggest replacing the DASH.pm file in the plugin as per this post http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?104672-BBCiPlayer-with-DASH-support-test-version&p=856064&viewfull=1#post856064 The replaced DASH.pm has a few tweaks to deal with long delays and it will also generate specific log message when BBC server takes more than 500ms to reply. If it is a BBC problem then little can be done (without going to the extreme of preloading whole programs) as it occurs on all DASH player including BBC own Web browser player. If you still have the problem and you do not get message about long delays - then it needs further investigation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104672 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
