I'm trying to listen to mms://webcast.ripe.net/ripemtg-audio2 using VLC under Mac OS X. The audio feed is very, very choppy; following the discussion is impossible.
This is a known problem with the audio-encoding equipment, which has issues being powered on for too long. Power-cycling the equipment fixes the problem on a temporary basis, however this does disconnect the audio streams.
Increasing the buffer length in VLC from 1200 ms to 7500 ms also seems to have helped... the audiofeed was listenable-to with WMP9 (still OSX) at the same time, hinting more at a client-side issue. Now if only people would talk steadily into the mics :) -- Niels. -- "Engineering--if you're innovating and not just shipping the same product everyone else is--isn't just a science, it's an art.
