Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC IPlayer runs late and slow
Thanks for all the comments above, helped me sort an issue where today for some reason all the BBC presenters had deeper voices. Checked the File Types settings, but all were set at default. *Fixed the issue in the BBC iPlayer settings by changing the default stream from HLS to DASH*. After changing this, I noticed when playing a BBC stream it was no-longer being transcoded from AAC to PCM, I guess this is what to watch out for.

Good that it works. Your system has a 4 core processor with "hard float" Linux so it should be able to keep up with necessary resampling without too much load. As "sox" will be included when playing all AAC stream to the SB1 - you should check that AAC files/streams with 44.1kHz are not affected - sox should see source is 44.1kHz and do no processing. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108717 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

It "feels" like a syntax error in your custom-convert.conf file. Attach your custom-convert.conf file to a post so I can check - spaces and tabs and end-of-line are critical (i.e a file edited on Windows editor often have incorrect end of line sequence) Use the MAC address version - that is guaranteed to work. Don't use the "Squeezebox" one as I couldn't test that - e.g. there may be a case or spelling issue. Check what is being executed by enabling logging player.source to debug and then try to play a BBC station. Note time of start of test, wait 30 secs and copy from log every line between start of test until end into a text file, zip and attach to a post.

The player with firmware 40 is a SB1 which cannot play AAC natively and cannot play Flac so AAC is transcoded into 48KHz PCM which has no header so SB1 plays it has 44.1Khz. I'm not clear what you are talking about wrt Spotty as this a BBCiPlayer thread. That is the problem and has been true for all files & stream 48kHz AAC on SB1 - not just BBCiPlayer and known for a long time ( http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?6405-48KHz-playback ) AFAICT no solution has been posted over the years. The only solution I can think of is to add sox in the "AAC-> PCM" trasncoding for SB1 to ensure a 44.1kHz but this will put a load on the LMS processor. No details on your LMS server - so the following is for a Linux based server. If lines below are edited to use correct MAC address (i.e. replace with AMAC of your SB1) and then saved in a custom-convert.conf file (make sure tabs are saved as tabs and not spaces) in the same directory as the LMS convert.conf file then after LMS restart LMS will always convert AAC streams to the device with MAC address into 44.1Khz streams. MAC address of player can be found in LMS WebUI Setting/Information tab or on label of player.

Thanks for speedy response. I'm running BBC iPlayer (1.5.4.5) Configured thus: Live stream Dash>HLS>MP3>FlashAAC On Demand Dash>HLS Settings/Advanced/Filetypes: AAC: AAC Disabled FLAC Disabled MP3 Disabled PCM faad Other plugins: BBC iPlayer Extra Date & Time Network Test Powersave Radio Visualiser Screensaver The phenomenon occurs across the estate, with different devices running independently. Coincidentally I cannot get synchronisation to stick, and have to re-enable it manually each time I want to use it.

Does this happen on a single Touch/Radio player, not synced ? What other plugins installed ? BBC audio is at 48kHz- it "feels" like audio is being played back at 44.1kHz - this can happen if LMS settings are changed so that a player should play in PCM and not in Flac or native codecs. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108717 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
