BBC IPlayer on older SB2 is slurred / slow

Hi,

Has anyone had experience with older SB being slurred (slightly slow, almost drunk) on the system, and if synchronised will cause other players to do same. Only on Triode BBC Iplayer and since the newer streaming methods. For past few hours decided to make an effort and try to fix.

I checked it wasn't faad, by both using a stock faad and changing the AAC>PCM settings in the convert.conf from -f 1 -b 1 to -f2 (pcm to wav) and that did not make any difference

With a touch only
15730 ? S 0:00 sh -c "/usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux/faad" -q -w -f 1 - | "/usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux/flac
15731 ? S 0:04 /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux/faad -q -w -f 1 -
15732 ? S 0:02 /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux/flac -cs --totally-silent --compression-level-0 --ignore-chunk-sizes -

With the SB2 on
26747 ? S 0:00 sh -c "/usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux/faad" -q -w -f 2 -b 1 -
26748 ? S 0:00 /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux/faad -q -w -f 2 -b 1 -

BBC Iplayer is being pulled from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pro...repo-short.xml (1.4.10)


Could anyone give me an idea where to get to this problem..... obviously would like not to replace the SB2... its sentimental, imported it from USA when Slim Devices were up and coming before entering UK market.
