Hey guys,
I tried using LMS to listen streams from this website http :// open.fm/play/138. It has bunch of ad free stations.
I have extracted the url but the sound quality is really poor in comparison to how google chrome or other stream players play it.
This music stream plays well in SB Touch directly but plays quietly and is muffled when goes via LMS.
The problem, I presume, is that it's AAC codec is not recognising/interpreting the actual stream correctly - hence the distorted sound.
High pitch sound dominates the spectrum whereas low and mostly mid tones are pretty much missing. Also you can hear some decoding artifacts. Please listen to it, perhaps you can have suggestions then.
I really want to use LMS so I can play same music in multiple rooms.
I tried LMS 7.8 and 7.9 on ubuntu 16.04 as well as 7.8 on mac. All showing same problem.
I then tired replacing flac and faad in /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux to the latest available from Ubuntu 16.04 but it did not help either.
Stream url:
http :// stream.open.fm/138?type=.aac&user=800080391234&player_group=WWW&u ser-agent=OpenFM-Chameleon%2F1.100.0002%20(BROWSER%3BFirefox%3B53.0 )%20(OS%3BOSX%3BIntel%20Mac%20OS%20X%2010.12)
Tnx
Pablo
