Re: [slim] SoftSqueeze Audio Buffer Underrun

I'm afraid that I can't find those instructions Richard.
I copied the one example I could find - how to run headless - and removed 
the headless instruction, but that complained it couldn't find the 
softsqueeze.jar file in any event...

 Hmm. Please could you run Softsqueeze from the command prompt (see the 
 Softsqueeze website for instructions), and when the audio has stopped get 
 a thread dump by pressing Ctrl-Break in the console. If you could include 
 that with the logs it might help here.

 Thanks,
 Richard

I have just found the problem with the version numbers, Softsqueeze is 
storing the version number in your preferences instead of always reading 
it from the configuration file. So the chances are you do have 2.0b3 
installed.

What type of hardware are you running? If this is on a multi-processor 
or hyper-threaded PC could you try running with just one processor 
and/or hyper-threading disabled. Does this help?

 If the visualizer stops then this indicates a problem with the mp3

 If the visualizer keeps running, then it indicates a problem getting the 
 audio data to the sound card. Could you capture 'javasound' debug, note

The latest example from the debug log is:

26169765 [SlimTCP-1] DEBUG player - httpRequest=GET 
/stream.mp3?player=38:bc:7c:16:87:63 HTTP/1.0
26169765 [SlimTCP-1] DEBUG player - parsed strm: command=u format=109

26169781 [SlimTCP-1] DEBUG player - start: state 2
26171953 [AudioStream-122] DEBUG javasound - audio stream closed

I think that's a new one...

 I have checked both the slimserver 6.0.1 and 6.1 releases, and they do 
 include Softsqueeze 2.0b3. I wonder if it is a caching problem with java 
 web start. You could try opening the Java Control Panel (in you WinXP 
 Control Panel), and deleting the temporary internet files.

Sorry I have been busy over the weekend, and only just had a chance to 
have a look. I don't understand why you are having problems running the 
newer version, but that won't make a difference here. The only 
difference between these versions is a fix to allow Softsqueeze to run 
on Java 1.4, I had  accidentally broken this.

In the logs you sent me it looks like the audio decoder stopped part way 
through the track, have you tried using jlayer instead of the Java MP3 
Plugin? If this does not make any difference could you send me offlist a 
log including javasound, player and player verbose debug, it is not 
obvious what's gone wrong here.

Richard

Every time I load SoftSqueeze it tells me I have the wrong version; I

 It is more complicated by the fact that SlimServer and the Sourecforge

 The latter in c:\program files\softsqueeze, and the latter in c:\documents

 Although the latter has since disappeared!
