Followup: After my instance ran for a couple of hours, I began encountering the same error (skipping the first second or so of files) with samplerate=48000 as well. Looks like that was a bad correlation on my part.
I've reverted the test stream to 44100, where it sounds SO much better. Still looking for a solution to the bad file starts. --- Bill Goldsmith Radio Paradise www.radioparadise.com On Wed, Mar 6, 2019 at 6:29 PM William Goldsmith <b...@radioparadise.com> wrote: > I'm setting up a FLAC stream using a playlist of FLAC files.
