You know, .. I've found that RealPlayer doesn't do too great a job of
playing those Shoutcast streams either. I'm also on a LAN, so maybe that
there is the problem like you suggest. Live365.com insists that their
streams are best listened to using RealPlayer 7.0, -- yet based on my
experiments, .. RealPlayer seems to make no attempt whatsoever to buffer the
material prior to playing it. It seems as though as soon as it finds the
stream, .. it starts streaming it, .. and the dropout I experience
thereafter makes listening to the stream unbearable.

Subject: [ real player 7 mp3 streaming ]
we have set up the shoucast server(1.5.0). playing our live
stream(linerec/24Kbps@24KHz) with
winamp works, but we have strange problems with realplayer7 basic...
working in a lan, rp7 says "connecting", the sc-server list rp as new
listener and sends the stream to rp7, but rp7 never comes to "buffering"
or "24.0 Kbps". the rp-status "connecting" remains for minutes.
the strange thing is that it works when I connect with rp7 from
home(isdn). Furthermore, when connecting rp7 to some shoutcast stream
listed at shoutcast.com rp7 plays correctly!
so here is my "guess": rp7 has some kind of bug when the connection to
the shoutcast server is too fast(lan), maybe our relatively slow
maschine(P133-win98) which rp7 is running on enforced this problem.
has anyone experienced the same problems? any solutions?
