Hi Brad,

I tried the new a2play code on my Motorola HT820.

I'm finding that the sound cuts out after about 10 seconds of playing an mp3 with -p.  I haven't found a value to replace the 100 which corrects that.  

Per a previous suggestion of yours, I tried using different values from 87 for the itimer option.  A value of 84 seems to work decently with this headset.  The sound cuts out for a fraction of a second every 15 seconds or so.  I was unable to improve this with different values or by using a range of values with either the -t or -t -t options.

Nat,

FWIW, I found and fixed a problem in the way we interpreted the rtc 
return, but I still kept having problems with using what libsbc returned 
for the duration of a frame.
