Laggish flash addon. How to give information?

Dear all,
I like hearing my bbc radio three online stream
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/player/bbc_radio_three

There are times when pc gets slightly more “busy” (cpu utilization 15%) that the sound gets a big laggish with very very short interruptions.

What type of information I should report you here to help me fix this problem? My web browser is an opera.
Regards
Alex

Is it limited to Opera?

Do you have any idea which version of openSUSE you use? Please share that knowledge with us.

I tried FF, flash doesn’t even load.
After a while, I get this text:

+++—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-
The sound of silence

We’re trying to play this station, but we’re having problems. Apologies.

The station’s stream may be broken, or there may be a mis-match between
this stream, and your device.

Please click here to retry.
—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-+±

And nothing more happens.

I tried Chrome, and this works fine.

I have loaded the machine a bit be running a vmware guest, and told it
run a yast online update. No issues to the playing in the host.

But now I have 100Mb/s internet, so that makes a difference…

I would prefer not having to use a browser to listen to music, but…

Using audacious. I also tried VLC, different error.

mpv seems to be CLI, and also fails.

Ah well, It used to work. maybe they’ve changed things

When I now use mpv It starts to play and stops after 30 seconds.
I get the message, at the start. [ytdl_hook] youtube-dl not found, not
executable, or broken. Perhaps its not needed from the command line.

When it stops, the new message says
[ffmpeg] tcp: Failed to resolve hostname as-hls-uk-live.edgesuite.net: Name
or service not known
[ffmpeg/demuxer] hls,applehttp: Failed to reload playlist 0

Your forbidden message maybe because your not in the UK

Chrome has no problem with that, music plays nicely. Full browser, of
course, and running side by side with FF for browsing.
