Hi Sarah,
The AAC stream is a low bit rate, very high quality compression stream which
Jon's playout system uses for our streams, iPhone browser supports it
natively, but other PC's may not have the encoders for it, hence your prompt
to download the AAC player plugin for your browser...

The Streema one still seems to be playing an old test stream and loads of
pauses as of this morning.
When it worked on Sunday it seemed really good.
When I click on Jon's link to the test stream all my computer wants to do is
download aac (whatever that is), which of course fails. Am I doing
something wrong?
I am assuming when we get this all sorted we will start publicising.....just
wondering when we can do that?

Morning all,
Listening in this morning to this stream below, so far, sounds good, no
pauses, everything flows, interesting choice of tunes! (Is this playlisted
Nick, or random from Music database?)
Out of interest, how long to do we leave the Tune-in stream to "sync up"
before we get in touch with them?
Rgds

Been checking out the test stream. Loads of silence now between clips of
audio..... was that intentional?
I thought it sounded better with clips running close together with no long
pregnant pauses between. Doesn't flow now.

I see Nick has got everything wired up then and we have a working test
stream which is at...
http://streaming03.zfast.co.uk:8086/aac
this *isn't* the one going out on the website, it's purely for our internal
consumption and of course will be subject to interruptions as we fiddle
around with stuff.
