sctrans2 i saw way too many problems when we swapped people to liquidsoap namely a strange cutting in and out on occasion if a brief packet was lost.  Lots of dj's complained about this however it could have just been an earlier version of liquidsoap.

I´m not sure if i understand it right: you use prefer liquidsoap?

For a while i used liquidsoap but i got puffer and drop outs. Maybe its better with the last release?
sctrans2 run very well for a long time but the crossfade is not perfect.

I've been using liquidsoap for the past year with zero issues.

Thanks Rob916.
Current i use liquidesoap too. Works fine so far. CPU and Ram usage looks very good.

You'll find cpu usage is higher on liquidsoap.  You may also find out that users will experience problems with liquidsoap.  We had a lot of complaints of music cutting in and out but we focus more on a sc2 platform than anything else

Is this with live broadcasting you're getting the cutting out?  We primarily use Auto DJ and I've never experienced any cutting out.
