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... -- Neil Richard Titmuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Neil Cameron wrote: I did try JLayer - it made no difference. I'll email some new logs... 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 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

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?

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.
