Re: lingo-l music player [x-post]
Al - It's an 80 kbps stream - that's probably way too much for a modem. Most 56k modems deliver about 48 max on a good connect. Try your player w/this URL: http://audio.macromedia.com/samples/classic.swa (It delivers a 16 kbps stream therefore should play even in the hinterland.) BTW you can get your client's pipe tested from: Test Your Connection Speed http://www.x-mp3.com/testyourspeed.shtml note: I just tried it it didn't connect, but it had been working as recently as a week ago. Also note that a badly fragmented HD can cause gapping as the file system thrashes trying to cache the stream. hth -Buzz hi, I have a music player that I just did for a client. simple, straight ahead kind of thing. it plays either MP3 or SWA audio. problem is that he is on a dialup sometimes it does NOTHING or plays like crap, breaks up in the middle all that. doesn't seem to matter for SWA or MP3. I am buffering the audio for 15 seconds so it should play unless the connection is really abyssmal. of course we live up here in the hinterlands of New Hampshire, so that may be the case! I have Cable Modem here, no dialup so I'd appreciate it if some folks who have dialup connections could try these let me know how they work. http://www.cambersoft.com/client_temp/wmm/911_mp3.html http://www.cambersoft.com/client_temp/wmm/911_shockwave.html please let me know the following if you respond: modem speed: computer type: OS: RAM: Browser version: NOTE: the modem speed is the really critical part here grin thanks a lot, Al Hospers CamberSoft, Inc. alatcambersoftdotcom http://www.cambersoft.com A famous linguist once said: There is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative.

Al.. On my test dialup machine: modem speed: 56k computer type: Pentium II 233 OS:Windows 98 SE RAM: 128 Browser version: IE 5.0 Audio takes about 40 - 50 seconds to play. Once it *does* play it plays fine.
