Super :> Whilst I have your eye as such, are the MP3 versions of iPlayer radio content still transcodes from AAC or are they encoded from the source feed in parallel? I always noticed in the past whenever I used get_iplayer to grab some radio shows for my DAP the MP3 versions (via flashaudio etc) were noticeably poorer quality than the original raw AACs; warbly, burbly sound, what sounded like transcoding artefacts and distortion of the stereo imaging. Has the MP3 encoding workflow for radio programmes changed at all since last year? - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
