Title: MC10 cannot play MP3 PLS stream
Post by: shAf on December 21, 2004, 07:24:24 am

Why would MC10(173) not be able to play the webmedia MP3 PLS stream found here:
http://www.klcc.org/listen/listen.html ...

I get instead the general error message "Media Center encountered errors while trying to play the last several files"(?!)

It is a 22.1 kHz stream. What is your output mode? For example ASIO4ALL driver does not support that sample rate. I tried 10.0.173 with Wave Out and it plays it OK. (I pasted the address to "Open Url..." in MC.)

My mode was ASIO with my M-Audio Revo set for a sample rate = 44100 and ASIO buffer size = 2048 samples.  I tried 'wave out' for both devices ... 'Revo' and 'wave mapper' ... but the URL still won't play (i.e., same message)  ?

HINT: I get the same message if I try to play the "Windows Media" link at the same wwwpage.
