I'm so pleased that, many years ago, I backed the "Squeezebox Paradigm" for my digitised media streaming. What a fantastic product and community - notwithstanding the BBC's strenuous efforts to screw things up and Logitech's "hands-off" approach!
Thanks to the generous help and expertise of this community, I've got my WHS 2011 and RasPi 2 servers fully functioning with Triodes iPlayer tweaked so as to provide all streams at better quality than ever (thanks Bonze). On the Raspberry Pi system, with help from Parky, I compiled my own avconv and and used his fix to kill multiple instances of avconv which occurred after channel hopping. Thanks also to expectingtofly for providing a newer ffmpeg - I couldn't get it to work on my system, but that could be down to my ageing brain failing after too many hours spent at all this. I've even learned a bit more about Linux today. The BBC, in my opinion, comes out of this very badly. We should never had had to jump through all these unnecessary hoops. They even blocked my post containing a link from their blog to the page on this site with the "secret urls" for many hours today and only relented when I made it clear in another post what was going on. I feel real sorrow for the poor folks outside the "squeezebox community" and those with limited technical skills who were persuaded by the Beeb that digital streaming was the future and they've just been dropped in a deep hole. So, personally, a very successful day - I'm now going to leave the PC and just listen to some music, and relax. Many many thanks to all - you're doing a fantastic job. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ChipMonk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
