No, the flc file plays properly when I play it using audacity - no LMS/squeezelite involved. If I use LMS/BBCIplayer/squeezelite or LMS/tune in the url/squeezelite I get the distortion. I don't know a way to play the file using LMS, I can't see a way to browse for a file. canyelles's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33326 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103209 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Do you have LMS - if so then play it through your SB player. I was using http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/hls/uk/sbr_high/ak/bbc_radio_fourfm.m3u8 This means you are different from krell and so there could be either two different problems or one problem caused by OSX. What is your system setup when playing BBC live stream in the two different ways. Full details system, OS LMS version, player type . Thank you very much for your help, it is much appreciated. I was trying to play it using LMS and couldn't figure out how to play it. I am using iTunes integration and can't find a way to select a file. I loaded it into Audacity and it sounds fine. I am using LMS 7.9.0 - 1424440547 on a 2014 mac mini using Yosemite 10.10.2 My player is squeezelite and then via USB to a Devialet 200 squeezelite is v1.6.4, Copyright 2012-2014 ffmpeg was downloaded from ffmpeg.org ffmpeg version 2.5.3 Copyright (c) 2000-2015 the FFmpeg developers built on Jan 19 2015 13:08:24 with llvm-gcc 4.2.1 (LLVM build 2336.11.00) canyelles's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33326 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103209 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Whereas the 6Music MP3 streams seem to be playing 128kbps (from BBC Radio App) http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/5/select/mediaset/http-icy-mp3-a/format/pls/vpid/bbc_6music.pls So I expect a 128kbps MP3 stream will be better than a 48kbps AAC stream. edit: I just retested to get bit rate of m3u8 - sbr_low is 96kbps and sbr_vlow is 48kpbs. So the quality of stream will depend on the URls you used - can you give a link to the exact opml file you used. Thanks. I have created a flc file but I don't know how to play it. I was using http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/hls/uk/sbr_high/ak/bbc_radio_fourfm.m3u8 I got the opal file from somewhere in one of these enormous threads.
