unexpected trplayer behavior

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Geoff -


Matt has eliminated trplayer as a possible cause - he has found that my
file malfunctions in the same way when run on RealPlayer 8 without the
trplayer interface. I have asked for Peter Godman's help, so we shall
see. 
As for the bit rate deal, I have a few files which were recorded at 8000
sampling rate, and compressed to a bandwidth of 3kb, where trplayer
reports "bit rate 8k" - but other .rm files which seem to correctly report
bandwidth as the bit rate.
