Re: [slim] Can anyone tell me why these streams won't play?
When testing these stream with mplayer compared to other "Normal" AAC streams. Mplayer produced message such as Code: Unsupported LATM configuration: 11 programs/ 26 subframes, 3 layers, allstreams: 0 This seems to indicate there is something unusual about the configuration of the streams and the Touch decoder may need to be updated but you will need to create a bug report. A workaround if you use a local SBS server would be to disable native AAC decoding and then the stream will play by transcoding done in the server. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90383 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Big Party
You mean Andy? No, there are definitely 10 streams going out over the network. Each player must be sent its own stream. There's only one conversion process, though. All streams send data from that one process.
