Interestingly, it happens repeatedly and reliably for me for all BBC Sounds streams (yes you are right LMS is fetching them, they are dash streams that are stitched together by the plugin.). There is a lot of stuttering at the start of the stream, and intermittent micro stuttering as the stream is playing, you would have noticed if it was happening for you. The LMS that my radios are connecting to is on a very low powered raspberry pi model 1b, so I actually wondered if that is the problem. Ie, there quite a lot going on in the sysread of the plugin that is providing the aac stream to for the radios buffer, and I wondered if it was simply not completing the call quickly enough, even though there was plenty in the radios buffer, which had the effect of briefly blocking the community firmware processing, if you see what I mean. Anyway, that was just my speculation. I'll install the firmware again and get you some logs. *BBC Sounds Plugin Wiki* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_BBC_Sounds_Plugin/wiki ------------------------------------------------------------------------ expectingtofly's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63263 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113479 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
