Thanks for the replies. I thought that a fault at the BBC end seemed
most likely, but it's good to have it confirmed.

Probably irrelevant now, but I'm in the UK listening to AAC streams.

I get this same effect on Radio 3 - I amn outside the UK so it is a 48k
stream.  It also happens on the PC through browser. So it is not a
BBCiPlayer plugin problem.

Since it happens on both PC and SBS and inside and outside UK - it
looks like a central BBC problem - not a network or distribution issue.

I'm listening to Radio 5 Live now (Danny Baker). - Not my usual
listening.

It's exhibiting occasional bursts of bubbling noise and it's also doing
it simultaneously on my PC.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC iPlayer plugin - problems with some live streams

2010-02-13 Thread chriscole

Having the same problems (stuttering of audio for ~5-10secs) on 6Music
this morning - on the Flash/AAC stream, haven't tested the others. 

~10Mbit connection (London, UK) here and there don't seem to be any
problems with downstream bandwidth on my side of things.

Sorry - I'm already running late so can't immediately dig out any
logs...

Chris.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC iPlayer plugin - problems with some live streams

2010-02-13 Thread Triode

Well its hard to be sure - if you find it some some streams and not
others, then I would tend to blame the bbc end.  If the stream does not
start at all, then enabling plugin.bbciplayer.parser and
plugin.bbciplayer.rtmp logging would be useful to see.

For breakup during the stream - with flash aac streams using non
squeezeplay players, then the stream is processed by the server as well
as the player, so the problem could be the server running slow as well
as the network or bbc.  However unless you have a slow server I would
tend to suspect things outside our control.  Logging of the above set to
debug would show if there are big gaps in fetching the audio data, but
unless you can recreate the problem at will I am not sure this is worth
chasing as you will get lots of data and need to correlate it to the
point of the dropout..

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC iPlayer plugin - problems with some live streams

2010-02-13 Thread ian_heys

I had the same thing last weekend (and before that) on Radio 5 Live -
haven't listened today yet.

Also had very occasional breaks of up to 5 seconds on Radios 2 and 4
when listening early in the morning.

I put both down to problems at the BBC end as they tend to go away -
but maybe not?

Was it OK on the PC  ?

It is useful to say whether you are in the UK or not as there is a
difference in speeds of service and different server network.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC iPlayer plugin - problems with some live streams

2010-02-13 Thread mberger

I noticed last weekend that the live stream of BBC Radio 5 live was
breaking up badly from time to time (giving a kind of echoing stutter
effect.) I didn't have time to investigate but today the problem is
still there, as well as on Radio 5 Sports Extra and Radio 6. Radios 1-4
and 7 live streams are fine, as are all programs on demand. The problem
is reproducable on two SB3s and a Boom in different parts of the house.
Has anyone else noticed this?
