I came upon this topic by accident. I've always wonder where to report bad links in my SB radio. Glad to see toby10 is here to help. I reported these to RadioTime, so let's see what happens. http://radiotime.com/contact-us.aspx So here's 2 stations I had problems with recently. 1. 95.9 The

The most common cause of it was listed before, now it is not is due to the station changing it's streaming format, usually changing to AAC format. AAC stations are not listed on SB players when connected to MySB.com and using the RadioTime library. But these AAC streams are listed if using SBS

FYI - Foggy Mountain does work fine on a Reciva device (using the station from their database). It shows as a 131Kbps AAC stream. Their web-based stream laucher is very simplistic and for some stream URLs it does not result in something playing even though it works on the devices. RadioTime has

Email RadioTime and inform them the BellyUp stream is not working. It is reported as WMA and does not play on MySB nor SBS server. In the mean time you can cut paste this URL for BellyUp http://64.62.252.134:5100 into your Favorites. But this URL is likely to change from time to time so it

I have similar problems with internet radio stations suddenly disappearing. I have listened for months to BELLYUP4BLUES, but now it won't play on neither my SB3 or brand new Boom. Squeezebox server says it is connecting and the BELLYUP4BLUES banner shows. Even the title of the current track is

Both stations are very limited in distribution, this is the fault of the stations themselves. KLEJ is not listed on any other service that I can find. Foggy is also listed on the Reciva site and also does not play from there. I'd send an email to Foggy, tell them to go to www.Reciva.com Genre

Thanks, and I'll try that and see what they say. The thing about Foggy Mountain is that sometimes it will play. I have found plenty of stations that are on the radio menu and they dont play. Why list them if they do not play?(short rant) -- j.com

Any number of reasons: - their server is full (maxed out # of allowed listeners) - their stream is unreliable - bad stream formatting (mms: type streams are notoriously glitchy) - they don't bother to check their own stream - server issues with the stream aggregator (RadioTime in this

Hi all, new member here and first post. I do like the concept of the squeeze system but it's darn near a part time job trying to figure it all out. Overall I'm satisfied. I have a Radio and a Boom for 2 months now and having some difficulty streaming some radio stations. I am using sbs 7.5.3
