Ok, here goes...
When launching QT Player 5.0pr2, and opening the URL, I get a great stream.
-- Basic info as such (BitRate info panel) --
Conn. Speed : 1Mbps Cable (Allow Multiple)
(Actual connection is 2Mbit at first hop & 100Mbit at second hop)
Average : 307 kbit/sec
Max : 369 kbit/sec
Packet loss : 0 %
Buffer : 3-4 sec
Frames/sec : ~15 (14-16) (256*192)
---------------------------------------------
So, I then tried to find a menu item (holding down the menu's for 15-20
sec.) and then the stream drops to a 'slideshow' with same sound. I don't
know why QT drops down in video quality when no frames is droped (that's
what the BitRate infopanel shows anyway) but to bring back video, I had to
Pause & Play the stream again.
Here, something strange happens, reproduceble several times:
1. time I P&P: Video returns-Audio scraches and disapear!
2. time I P&P: Both parts of the streaming track plays OK!
(I have reproduced this 3-4 times)
