I installed yesterday morning XBMC 9.11 live to the HD and can confirm the audio probs with Shoutcast streams.
BUT yesterday evening it worked for some hours continous without errors on "Shoutcast - Disco - LEMIXX 160kbps" stream.:confused2:
Using the same settings under Win7 (without VDPAU of course) with XBMC 9.11 works fine! But i dont like to run such an "overblown" os as a backend for a HTPC mediacenter only!
So currently i am trying to switch to the linux version...
If i remember right i had the same probs with all other XBMC live versions since 9.04 i tested from CDROM - that includes all RC of 9.11 and the beta too.
(will check this later again...)
- now starting playback MP3s from the NAS ... -
