4. Which stream formats does the player support?

We support MP3 and AAC+ stream formats.

For a good customer experience with EDGE, WLAN and 3G, we recommend you to have your stream bandwith no larger than 64kbit/s.
We particularly recommend this having already had cases (due to network operators) where Apple Inc. did not accept high stream bandwidth and did not approve the app.

5. If I want to add more streams to my player, what do I need to do?

If you purchase the Pro or Multi Classic player, you can add streams at any time.
Just submit more logos and streams to the app in our admin dashboard.
We will then modify your app and submit it to Apple App store.
We charge a flat fee of 150 USD for each update.
