I've set up a lofi-version of the radio, running at 32kbit instead of 96kbit. Please, MODEM-users try it out and let me know if it's usable! |

If you have the bandwidth, why not boost the hifi version to 112/128 or something? |

|
|
no! |

he would have to lower the max users say if i dunno, autechre played again |

i'm not totally against it, but for now 96 kbit is quite a nice balance re: our bandwidth and quality. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Hence I asked if he had the bandwidth needed. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Yep, I understand that, just wanted to know for certain. |
||||||||

|
so did any modem-users try the lofi-version? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
could someone please try this? |
||||||||

the quality is kind of awful. and it's not loud enough. turn up the volume ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
96 is a good choice. Thanx. |
||||||||

of course the quality is awful, but I've had requests in the past to also make a lo-fi version available. just to ensure modem-users at least have a chance to tune in and check out what's going on..... we have two parallell streams available: 96 kbit and 32 kbit. so im asking again, is the lofi (32kbit) version usable for you modem-freaks? |

It was asked by Xeron if I remember correctly. Both of them work here, obviously I'll always use the HIFI version because I have a fast connection. The Lowfi version has a bad quality naturally, but it is really a nice idea for the people who have a slow connection (maybe at home) better than nothing! |

Up until fairly recently I was on 56k dial up and so the only online stuff i could listen to was 32kbit, and its not worth it. the difference in quality to 96 is shocking. 96 was enjoyable. 32 is far to squelchy for people to enjoy. if your connection can't cope with good quality, don't bother becase low quality is not an enjoyable experience and is not representative of what the music should sound like anyway. I found with dial up that it was best not to bother, besides broadband is becoming cheaper than dial up in most places, so I think the 32kbit will not be used much as more people get bb anyway. |
