Sorry for slow response - I didn't get notified of your input - sorry. It's difficult to tell. The connection drops out and starts to rebuffer, which takes a few seconds.

Your other services are not likely to be using Flac. Try disabling RTSP-Flac in Settings/Advanced/Filetypes and make sure you have lame installed. This will use MP3 which has less bandwidth requirements. Alternatively do a network test and make sure your SB3 can get about 1500kbps sustained for 10 minutes at 100%. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=52655 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] rtsp error Ubuntu/Debian AlienBBC v2.02 Beta1
Hi Ur[s]uS Great advice, which I followed to the letter. In fact I'd already done much of this in search of my issue, but hadn't enabled the multicast setting (duh). Anyways, I too have the cursed DIR-655 (which I'd previosly been very pleased with until this issue). What I find happens is that AlienBBC will connect fine, but breaks up every second, making it useless. I've increased buffer settings to no avail. Any ideas anyone ?

Describe the problem in more detail as that can indicate the source ofthe problem For example. 1. Stuttering with no loss of content (i.e. gaps but audio is continuous) usually means a problem with SC server or connection between SC and SB 2.

Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand (300) Error: Didn't find any command matches for type: rtsppl format: mp3 I have just spent about 6 hours finding, then troubleshooting this error. I've Kubuntu 8.04, Slimserver 7.2.1 stable main, AlienBBC 2.2b1. I have become familiar with chown and chmod, making sure squeezecenter owns (it had been owned by root) and could execute mplayer.sh and other Alien directory files etc. I also changed the radio station network timeout setting in squeezecenter to 30, rather than 5. One thing that puzzled me was whether it was necessary to download tarball for mplayer and confiugre/make/make install that programme or whether install from synaptic using the medibuntu repository was enough. I've changed so much, I'm no longer sure, but I think I settled on the medibuntu download and that works perfectly. There is no need for ws32codecs. I installed lame too, but not entirely sure that was necessary. Turns out, the main problem appears to have been my router. D-Link DIR-655. It has firewall that appears to reject RTSP streams. You have to turn off application level gateway (ALG) for RTSP in the firewall settings. However, this was not enough for me. I also had to enable multicast. After all of this, I now have alienbbc running on my linux box again.

a problem with mplayer.sh will affect both Listen Again and Live streams and if the problem started before 2.02 was installed then it is definitely not mplayer.sh related.

I'm just trying to understand how people install and run plugins. Previous version has world execute and this is the difference. Nautilus was probably running under a user id which is not the owner or a member of group assigned to mplayer.sh It seems that users install the plugin files with an ownership different to the process (and possibly the rest of SC files) that is running SC.
