Re: [slim] Problems listening to Shoutcast Stations With Latest Firmware

Tell your listener to try the RadioTime feed, works fine.
He'll need a RadioTime account (free) registered on SqueezeNetwork.

Then to find your stream:
From SC7  Internet Radio  Search  Americana

Or he could add your station as a Preset from RadioTime.com
SC7  RadioTime Presets  *folder*

Your stream shows up as 128k MP3.

[slim] Problems listening to Shoutcast Stations With Latest Firmware

2009-05-17 Thread Cat

Hi,
I am an internet radio broadcaster.  One of my listeners sent me a
message regarding difficulties with the latest Squeezebox firmware, and
I'm trying to answer his question.  I, myself, don't know anything about
Squeezebox, but I figured radio listeners on this forum may be able to
help.  Following is the problem as it was posed to me:

I can no longer listen to you on my SqueezeBox since their  
latest firmware update. This also is the case for other stations that 

use Shoutcast. Is there anything that I can do to resolve this?

FYI, RadioFreeAmericana (the station this listener was trying to listen
to) can be tuned in at our website's LoudCity page, the Shoutcast
listings, the Audiorealm listings, or the direct connect URL if it is
saved in your music player.

Thanks for any help,
Cat
RadioFreeAmericana.com

On your LoudCity page I found 3 streams, and I tried adding them to my
SqueezeCenter.

WMP:
http://loudcity.com/player/radio-free-americana/asx.asx?cache_bust=1242584644max_bitrate=1000
Error: the stream returned an unknown content type
(application/x-ms-asf; charset=utf-8). It may not play properly on your
player.

RealPlayer: http://loudcity.com/player/radio-free-americana/ram.ram
Error: Error -- Invalid strea. SqueezeNetwork can only play MP3, WMA
and Ogg streams.

After trying to play these streams from my Favorites, I can confirm
that they do not play.

I use SqueezeCenter 7.3.3 beta.

I do not have any problems with other Shoutcast stations.

The stream from the Shoutcast listing DOES work:

If it doesn't work the first time around, get a bigger hammer.

Yes, looks like it's due to the feeds being realaudio - the Squeezebox
does not do realaudio (due to historical licensing issues), although i
think it might if you install the AlienBBC plugging (for mplayer). I
think you can install mplayer (to transcode) without alien BBC, but it's
not something i have done.

If they used to work, have you switched formats?

Wouldn't it be better if the person having the problem posted here
instead?
Then their setup  versions etc. could be checked.

Just a thought..
