steamcast stream lagging

After a while I notice that this steamcast stream is lagging and shocking. Anyone got an idea on what config values this might exist?

/deepfm.mp3
/deepfm_backup.mp3

are both relays from a shoutcast server which is NOT lagging or shocking.

Thanks for your help.

when you say lag are you referring to the delay? If so set the SourceBufferUtil to a smaller value if you want less buffer up to the clients.

I guess buffering is not the right word (im dutch) it seems to me it skips.

Did you listen and find the same problems which i am describing?

Is it relaying a SHOUTcast server? If so the MetaInt in that SHOUTcast server needs to be set to either 8192 or 16384.

it is relaying a shoutcast server, i tried both of these MetaIntervals cause I also suspected it could be something in that way, but has no effect on the continuity of the stream, unfortunately.

Owh , by the way ... when encoding directly from SAM to this steamcast server it has exactly the same problems. It might help us finding the solution in steamcast or local services on that server.
