I am trying to narrow-down a problem with VLC Player and I would like to temporarily disable burst-on-connect. I have set this to 0, but it doesn't seem to disable. <burst-on-connect>0</burst-on-connect> <burst-size>65535</burst-size> http://stream.orban.com:80/eval Any ideas? Thanks. -greg. __________________________________________________________________________ Greg J.

Maybe mplayer can play it with the right support. Anyway, I don't currently have anything to play it with so I guess I'll leave it to those who do.

Thanks Karl- Setting the burst-size to 0 does indeed disable Burst-on-Connect. FYI: I have verified that disabling Burst-on-Connect allows VLC Player to play Icecast2 streams. I am notifying the VLC developers of this, so hopefully they can support Burst-on-Connect Icecast2 streams. SHOUTcast burst seems to work just fine, so maybe it won't be such a big problem to fix. Any other information on this might be helpful for me to pass on to the VLC developers, if available. What is the purpose of <burst-on-connect>, if <burst-size> overrides and actually enables/disables? Thanks again. -greg. At 07:09 2005-01-02, Karl Heyes wrote:>On Sun, 2005-01-02 at 14:20, Greg J.
