I know this is a recurrent question but I did not find anything to answer it in the archive... Here is my problem : after a file has been sent and read normally, sometimes the next one is read twice as slow or twice as fast as it should be. This is fixed by stopping the client and starting it again : this means that the problem does not really comes from the stream, which seams somehow to be correct...For example, any client connecting in the middle of the file would not be affected. I tried this with Winamp, XMMS and the BASS libs, with the same results each time. I noticed that this happened with low bitrate files, but converting them to 128kbps did not change anything. Any help welcome... -- Ced <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Try switching the sample rates.(i.e. 44100 to 22050 to 11025) your soundcard must support these sample rates. <p>Dave St John Mediacast1 Casterclub Xstream1 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cédric Mallet" <malletc3@cti.ecp.fr> To: "Icecast" <icecast@xiph.org> Sent: Monday, September 23, 2002 11:09 AM Subject: [icecast] Stream read too fast / too slow <p>> I know this is a recurrent question but I did not find anything to> answer it in the archive... > > Here is my problem : after a file has been sent and read normally, > sometimes the next one is read twice as slow or twice as fast as it > should be.

Hi: Sounds like your files have different sampling rates. Players don't cope with this - it's outside the MP3 spec. So you have to make sure they're all the same sample rate and same number of channels.
