    AlienBBC: no sound

    Hi All

    I am trying to get AlienBBC to work on my Slimserver_6.1.1, but it won't play ball.

    For the record, I can play files from the command line fine (big output):

    slim@huge:~/SlimServer_v6.1.1$ mplayer -cache 128 rtsp://rmlivev8.bbc.net.uk/farm/*/ev7/live24/radio1/live/r1_dsat_g2.ra

      strange, if I connect with my slimp3 player it does work....

      however....
      it does seems to work for the first 10-20 seconds, after that the sound get chopped etc etc.

          I don't think the AlienBBC software will work if you stream to WinAmp. I'm not sure but I think it is something in the code to stop people saving streams (getting the authors in to trouble!). If you search the forum you may find a way to get this to work.

          Unfortunately the garbled output is a bug with mplayer.
