I don't think anything can be done. This is BBC server taking a long time to reply - nothing to do with the intervening network. DASH is still beta so perhaps BBC is messing around or in your region servers are being maintained. Another possibility is problem is CDN specific and the CDN that DASH player uses by default is Akamai but there is a another CDN "Limelight" just there is no way in the plugin to select CDN. The player preloads chunks and each chunk is about 6 secs long so you shoudn't get many gaps since you seem to get bursts of good flow with pauses or usually up to 3-5 secs in between. I've had this sort of "service" before and it only seemed to last a few hours or max 1/2 a day. You can try HLS setting to see if it is better for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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 plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
