controlling audio delay

RJVB opened this issue · comments

Hi,

I'm not having much luck minimising the audio delay via the buffering duration parameter. The delay seems to be stuck at about 10s (sometimes less) even for a buffer duration of 2s. I guess my using VBR doesn't help but I don't see how it explains this much delay.

PS: this issue aside, darkice+icecast2 is the best solution yet I've found to stream the output of a player app to a receiver hooked to a capable hifi system.
