Yes, I am experiencing a lot of buffering on my end also.

Please check www.dslreports.com/stest

take the test, and make sure you have enough upload bandwidth to support several listeners at 128k.

naw my line roars..4 mbps ...it never buffers for me at all..i see other users login for 20+ hours with no buffer underruns...its the just at the very start of each song..it doesnt stop playing at all..it jumps ahead a few seconds with no pause..and only does at the start of every song..yet listening here on the host box it sounds fine..

Well I got buffers like every 15 seconds.

no mate..read my post closely..we just have a bad route between you and i ...its always at the start of a song..every song..even from the LAN! so its not a bandwidth issue..its a setting somewhere..

What is the CPU load on the encoding machine?

neme · 16th April 2004, 20:48

15% average ...its p4 2 gig with 512 megs ddr..you would think that would be fine huh? i listen closely to the stream here at work, it skips EXACTLY seven seconds into each song..it skips ahead about another 7 seconds ahead into the song with no gap or pause in sound at all...it then plays the rest of the song with no errors till seven seconds into the next song..Neme

Does the CPU spike when it skips?

neme · 16th April 2004, 22:50
