Hello,
Gxine + w32codecs is fine except on BCC radio (I tried radio 4 and 7): the
sound is choppy because gxine is vary often busy buffering. I'm on dial-up.
Now, Realplayer works fine (installed as a package): you can set the
connection to dial-up in the settings, and you can increase the buffer zone.
No interruption, though the quality of the sound isn't as good as in Gxine
but at least you can listen to a full drama without any interruption.
However I'd like to be able *not to use RealPlayer* because it isn't libre
software.
