10+ Sec Delay Before Track Start

[chuckles]

As the title says, I am getting this delay when downsampling (using the recommended ffmpeg settings), but only on a Mac (latest Mavericks). It happens with Safari and Firefox. If I log the same user onto a Windows machine the long delay doesn't occur.

This problem exists on both 4.9 and the new 5.0 beta running on a Windows machine.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks,
A

What happens if you add a different transcode; try this:
name: aac
convert from: mp3 ogg oga aac m4a flac wav wma aif aiff ape mpc shn
convert to: aac
step 1: ffmpeg -i %s -v warning -ab 128k -ac 2 -ar 44100 -f flv -

I think you'll need ffmpeg in your /subsonic/transcode directory too, from memory.

I find aac works really well & uses less bandwith so doesn't seem to need to cache. Web player plays it no problem

Thanks, I'll give that a try.
