Bingo, you hit the nail on the head, latency is called by the distance of the packets have to travel to the receiver, you cannot do anything about the packets going down the pipeline the way that they do. I don't go through such extreme measures as you're trying to get rid of latency, just open up the VLC put in your URL address and listen to the receiving music or broadcast that you're trying to put on the Internet, what, you doing is way too much.
Off topic, but, I've always felt that there is a great need for a music database that has millions of songs available such as Amazon music, that streaming radio stations could buy a subscription to. Virtually unlimited music!
Love it! The only reason it won't ever happen is due to music licensing & reporting. Too much of a rat's nest quagmire for any service to expose themselves to. However, it would make our lives much easier!
@@RadioDJDude Well, on platforms such as Live365, they would still be reporting the songs played and paying the royalties just as they do now. Nothing would change there.
a bit off-topic, can you recommend a good PC for running RadioDJ? I'm not a PC guy. Thanks.
I'm not a PC dude, either. Thankfully, RDJ doesn't require a beefy system. I run one version on a 5 yr old laptop. While it only requires 1 GHz CPU & 4GB RAM, I wouldn't go less than 2.6GHz CPU & 16GB RAM. FYI My station, XXX80s, runs on a virtual server.
A picture or video of your setup would be great.
@@RadioDJDude Thanks!
@@seebrad34 Hey, Brad! The entire vid is a picture of my setup. :)
@@RadioDJDude i cant recommend anything with less than 16gb ram in 2024. 32gb will be best. go for the last gen midtier, they used to be better and cheaper comparing to last gen top tier.
Hey man! I was wondering if this might be a better solution. It may be a bit more advanced, but here's what I am thinking for remote DJs....
A while back, you made a video using a VM. Would it be easier if I had a VM that had the playout software (i.e., Radio DJ, along with all the necessary software needed).
This way, the VM is available for the Remote DJ to login from their own browser and access the VM with all the needed software installed & ready to go for any Remote DJ?
This way, the Remote DJ will have access to "their" own portal through a browser....
If I understand this correctly, would this be possible?
The only thing I am unsure about is if the VM will be able to see the connected hardware used from Remote DJ.
For stations that already operate on a VM (Virtual Server), that could work! I still find Team Viewer more solid of a screen sharing interface vs one's offered by my VM. Plus, if your station doesn't operate in the cloud, the solution presented in the vid is probably easier to pull off for most. I tried to do this with my VM, but hit snags. Some services restrict which ports can be opened. Let me know if you get it to work!
@@RadioDJDude
Well personally, I'm still learning about VM & mapping drives to specific computers. And these are just suggestions that I've come up with, based on the knowledge I have thus far. It sure sounds like it would work but not sure if it'll get me results. And you're a valid person (imo), to ask. thank you
In my experience crawling latency was caused by a sample rate mismatch like 44.1 vs 48k.
There are many factors that contribute to it, unfortunately. One of the broadcast engineers at my old network says a big contributor is the distance the data packets must travel. SO, doing a test at my home studio isn't truly reflective of a real world experience.
@@RadioDJDudevban its great but speed of light is and will aways be a limit. they play online games at sub 20 ns. we should be able to have such lowlatency solution for audio broadcast
