Alley's player playing podcasts very fast

[MeneGene]

Recently, many podcasts that I listen to on the Alley through the Alley player are playing the casts fast.

Sounds like the chipmunks

But it's not all podcasts just a bunch of them. When I go the Podcasters site they play fine.

Is it something with the Podcast Alley Player?

I'm using Safari on OSX.

Thanks

ha! i love it when they sound like chipmunks...my computer's dvd player still plays the audio when i fast foward a movie 2x, i watch movies in half the time and no matter what it is, i laugh my *** off...

I would offer that in today's world of cheap players that can handle any bit rates, CBR or VBR, any sample rates, it's just unacceptable for Flash to only play a subset of all of them correctly.

Thanks for sharing that!

it's a problem with the flash technology and not the player itself. Unless they could figure out a way to read the file and slow it down automatically when it's been encoded a certain way, I don't think there's a fix.
