[SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC IPlayer on older SB2 is slurred / slow

2017-02-19 Thread jamesarbrown
Hi, Has anyone had experience with older SB being slurred (slightly slow, almost drunk) on the system, and if synchronised will cause other players to do same. Only on Triode BBC Iplayer and since the newer streaming methods. For past few hours decided to make an effort and try to fix. 1/ I chec

Thanks bpa. I will take a look through, last thing i did was deleted /etc/squeezeboxserver and reinstalled. I will look at a full purge, SQL et al. But it is only the SB2 that does this, all other devices I have, touch, boom, radio are fine. Its something specific to that player only. -

Didn't work Its not a setting or install issue, completely scrubbed squeezeboxserver, including all folders in /var/lib and /usr/share, /etc/squeezeboxserver, reinstalled with only 1 new plugin as iPlayer and still same. Though I hasten to add, my guess was 10% slow, so bpa's 9% sounds exactly l

Fixed. Thanks to bpa, the pointer where the issue was is in the aac>pcm conversion. The SB2 seemed to go for PCM (I don't know what rules these players go through to request a format from the SlimServer) yet the touch goes for FLC. Under file types I simply disabled AAC with PCM. The secondary a

I think you are correct and I am surprised. Model Squeezebox Firmware 40 Its description/name always defaults to Squeezebox2 though, which is what I think threw me and the fact it had wifi... long time ago, I must have an SB1 with optional Wifi. --
