Hi all,

Got this working, but it's no better. Even when the buffer is full the
track
still goes ragged at intervals.

Having spent all day trying to solve it I'm turning my attention to other
issues for now.

Will revisit this when I get time, probably by writing a complete new
client
from the ground up so I can test the streaming before any other function
(e.g. any display etc). This way it can be checked at each stage. If it
won't stream with just the streaming part then I'll try an alternative mp3
decoder (like xing or similar).

If anyone has any knowledge of what the original receiver software used for
it's mp3 decoder, please advise.

Regards
Tony
