Re: [slim] First Surround 5.1 Webradio !

Yeah, I've got the same here, some glitches but the program is really
nice with a mix of classical and movie soundtrack...

Thanks Andy It worked all right now after editing types.conf, it took
me a little long my server is on ...Mac, it wasnot easy to find the
file...

Now my output is Dolby Prologic on 5 channels, the SB SPDIF output goes
from the SB to an audio/video HUB, I guess conversion are ongoing all
thru, but the restitution is fantastic (actually my Hub is a high end
Bang Olufsen device, it helps :)

Regarding the AC3 decoding in the SB,  could this be only achieved with
a 'hardware' upgrade or with a soft/firmware update ?

Anyways thanks a lot for your help. The Squeezebox is a top notch
device and I will never give it up !

Hi Andy,

>From the streaming info the radio is broadcasted in content type MP3S.
However even if the SB is a 2 channel media it should be able to open
the stream as the stream is claimed compatible with any other
players...

Quote from Zenon-Media :

Zenon-Media joined the Fraunhofer Institut of Erlangen to launch for
the NAB exhibition as a world innovation a surround 5.1 stream based on
the MP3 SX technology. The stream is compatible with all standard mp3
players and can be listened from everybody.

They claimed...

Anyway thanks for your enlightning.

Cheers !

[slim] First Surround 5.1 Webradio !

2007-07-13 Thread deadwood

In association with Zenon-Media and the Fraunhofer Institute of
Erlangen, French Broadcaster Radio Classique has launched at NAB 2007
in Las Vegas a streamed surround 5.1 Webradio. 

Stream URL ==> http://str2.creacast.com:86/
And for those who read french :
http://www.radioclassique.fr/index.php?id=143

Despite the streaming is correctly handled by Winamp with or without
the winamp 5.1 plugin, the squeezebox is unable to open the stream, I'm
running the latest slimserver build...

If you can give it a try and let us know...

Thanks !
