I've been listening to kcsm recently using alsaplayer. They have a 128k stream and a 64k mp3 stream. Both have sounded real good everytime till now. Right now the ogg stream is very distorted/corrupted. I sent them an email, but I'm still interested in what's causing this. I can bring up 2 instances of Alsaplayer and listen to first one stream and then the other. Alsaplayer reports the mp3 stream as 64k, but the streaming rate for the 128k stream varies, 110 to 230 rapidly. I never payed attention to the stream rate before but I know I've been using the ogg stream and I think I would have noticed this rapid variation. I running a recent PlanetCCRMA RH9 setup. Who's problem is it; theirs or Alsaplayers? Marv
