[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: Alien BBC Listen Again problem ! 6.5/v1.06/1.0pre8

2007-01-17 Thread sparkling

I've been checking what works and what doesn't and seem to have solved
my problem; well found an easy get-around anyway.

All the streams work fine apart from Radio 4 A-Z and Radio 4 Listen
again. I get a message saying:
Can't connect to retrieve playlist on the box.

I didn't realise that the option named simply Radio 4 listed all the
programmes. I assumed that it was the listen live option.
Well here, I can access all the programmes I need.

So problem solved.

(BTW Cheers bpa. I've seen you've helped a number of people with
alienbbc problems as I've searched threads for a solution. Thanks for
your help on this one...
For the record- Running last night's slimserver and v1.06 of alienbbc,
I used the install pack, and XP.)

I tried the mplayer tester and it stops on the Archers after 203.3
secs !!!

i don't have any more sophisticated debugging i'm afraid...

2006-12-24 Thread bpa

The common causes of this problem are:

A. Did you alter the default Windows TCP parameters in the registry  or
did you run a program which optimised your network settings (e.g.
improve download)

B. You are using a satellite internet link (or a link with a long
transmission time)


Assuming the TCP parameters have been changed  - you have a choice
(otherwise just do step 2)
1. Reset the TCP parameters 
or
2. Changes the custom-convert.conf file in the Plugins/Alien directory.
Save the current custom-convert.conf and copy the
custom-convert.conf.alt to custom-convert.conf

This will result in Listen Again taking about 15 secs to start but
should fix the problem.
