They will show instantly - if they have been loaded already. However programme listings are biggish chunks of data. > Interestingly other stations e.g. Radio Paradise come through instantly > and My Music like Random Mix are also instantaneous. These streams are continuous a single HTTP GET and megabytes of data flow. BBC using DASH and HLS are mulitple http/GET each with 3 secs of audio - lots of small chunks/files. The akamai time stamp is a single http/get and uses basic LMS http functions - There is nothing special about it yet it fails. > That's why I'm doubting iPlayer plugin. Sure but it is the only one playing DASH or HLS streams - so comparison with other stream is not like for like unless they are also DASH or HLS. Do you play any HLS streams ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109826 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
