The progress bar is misleading - once SC starts to connect progress assumes everything is OK and starts counting even if no connection has been made to station. Only when SC says connection broken does progress bar stop.
The audio stream is live so can only supply data at 48kbps and so to fill the 128kb (?) cache will always take time (cache size / stream data rate). having a high speed broadband cannot speed up the realtime live data stream only listen again streams. The problem is around mplayer/ mplayer.sh Most likely 1. mplayer.sh cannot find mplayer. 2. mplayer cannot play the rtsp stream 3. router is blocking port 554 Re point1 - What directory is mplayer installed ? I have Ubuntu 8.?? and standard install worked but perhaps 9.04 has moved things around. to test 2 & 3 can you run from a command line Code: -------------------- mplayer -v rtsp://rmlive.bbc.co.uk/bbc-rbs/rmlive/ev7/live24/scotland/live/scotland_tl_g2.ra -------------------- -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65473 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
