Installed on Win7 - ffmpeg installed - using the BBC m3u

No idea what I need to put in stream.transcode

I've tried aac:mp3

Nothing plays on android dnla/upnp renderers (which will play plain mp3 files on Minimserver)

Help needed

Can you post your playlist file here?

I have just tried my system with my smartphone, android 4.4.4, bubbleUPnP and local renderer. I can't get any BBC stream to play. I have declared aac in the playlist, and then omitting transcode, or (with ffmpeg) supplying aac:wav or aac:mp3. None work on that device.

My other software renderers (upmpdcli and mpd), and two Internet Radios, all still work, although some need transcoding aac:wav.

Okay - that clarifies the issue a bit!

I'll fire up my Reciva radio - it can play aac. So what do you suggest as settings?

No transcode at all to start with.

m3u containing:

Code:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,[*R3;aac] BBC Radio 3
http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/hls/uk/sbr_low/ak/bbc_radio_three.m3u8

(assuming you are still outside the UK).

If that fails I supplied ffmpeg, and aac:wav for transcoding.

Does the Reciva support tunein or vTuner or similar? I'm about to shut down for the night, so good luck!
