Most stations are played direct to player with no involvement of the server except in the case of transcoding or sync. If you were to make all traffic go through the server (which would might mean more powerful servers are needed and more local network bandwidth), then you could do a ring buffer but you might as well provide a PVR type functionality and save the stream to disk rather than hold it in memory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98256
