A possible clue from the debug log is that the media segments being played were considerably delayed from the latest available segment. This might be caused by earlier dropouts that have caused the player to lag behind the real-time stream transmission.

Does the stream sound like it is being played more slowly than it should be? The BBC server is sending the data at a sample rate of 48000 Hz. If the player thinks this is a 44100 Hz stream, this would cause the stream to lag behind real time.

Other possibilities are that the delays might be caused by BBC server issues or by a problem somwhere within your local network. Is your local network overloaded? Are you using any MinimStreamer transcoding options?

Yes is does sound it is being played more slowly my local network does not seem to be overloaded but can you explain to me what Minimstreamer options are. Regards
