quality with streaming

FebruaryBattles	Date: February 15, 2006 @ 3:43 PM i posted up my track... and the quality was bad... but when i stream it on dmsuic its even worse... but if i stream it from my comp it sounds a little better
FebruaryBattles	Date: February 15, 2006 @ 3:43 PM is there a reason for this?
Distilled1	Date: February 15, 2006 @ 4:18 PM low bit rate. encoded to low mhz
Bam	Date: February 15, 2006 @ 4:30 PM should be okay if your streaming hifi and NOT lofi
FebruaryBattles	Date: February 15, 2006 @ 4:38 PM its different ... im streaming hi fi
Bam	Date: February 15, 2006 @ 4:40 PM upload it again only other problem i can think of is if when you stream it opens up in a diff player to when you open it form ur computer, the player the stream opens up in may have Eq settings on and fuked up... don't know what else it could be
FebruaryBattles	Date: February 15, 2006 @ 4:45 PM yea thats what i figured.. winamp is what i normally use but it streams windows.
RayN44	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 8:07 AM Change the default player on your computer from WMP(windows media player)to winamp. The other thing is when you upload a track to Dmusic, Dmusic also resizes the track again thus losing more quality,
shadowself	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 9:20 AM No they don't.
hantu	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 9:47 AM hifi don't lose any quality
GeneHilbert	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 10:27 AM Haven't seen that, only on the lofi
shadowself	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 1:49 PM I guarantee that the hi-fi mp3 is not altered in any way. I downloaded my new song (my connection last night was too poor to stream it to check for errors) and both the downloaded song and the original mp3 were identical in size. I had forgotten about the lo-fi stream (ugh!), and yes... this is resized.
Apertome	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 2:18 PM I'll confirm that the hifi version is not modified. Something else must be at play here.
K3VIN	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 3:15 PM it was my media player... dont worry
shadowself	Date: March 20, 2006 @ 4:06 PM Figured it was, K3v... just wanted to dispel the idea that DMusic downsamples the hi-fi stream. This ain't Myspace!
