It isn't Logitech's fault that WABC changed its stream format. Besides that there are work-arounds such as using Shoutcast or starting the stream in the WebUI on SBS so that it gets transcoded.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] WABC Radio MIA
I noticed WABC was streaming on Shoutcast last night, and it worked fine, however, this morning it did not work. If Logitech cannot update the firmware to become AAC compatible in the near future, looks like I'm going to throw out this $400 radio, and use my IPOD touch to listen to Internet radio streams (there are lots of cheap apps available). It's to bad, because I really liked the Squeezebox Boom. -- ryder ryder's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35275 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79367 ___ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Highly unlikely as Boom's firmware is maxed out and the new player architecture is completely different. Other than fixing problems on the Boom I doubt you will see any Boom hardware development time for hardware enhancements. When/how/if they can make any changes to MySB.com to play such streams on older players (like Boom) is anyone's guess. -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79367 ___ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

And if you're saying this worked, then this is true. I know it played on my TOUCH as well. But older SB's (boom, SB3, transporter, duet) do NOT play AAC natively, so the link won't work for those UNLESS you are accessing via SbS on your own computer. Then SbS does the transcoding you need. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79367 ___ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

They have the updated feed at radiotime.com. So this is not the issue. As I mention in another message in this thread, the new stream is AAC and one needs either SbS for transcoding or a player that natively plays AAC (touch or radio). -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79367 ___ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] WABC Radio MIA
I have this URL working as a favorite: http://5203.live.streamtheworld.com/WABCAMAACCMP3 Unfortunately, it only works for me in using SqueezeboxServer and not with mysqueezebox.com. I assume this is because it is an AACplus stream that requires transcoding and my transporter/sb3/duet/boom can't natively play this. It does stream just fine on my TOUCH via mysb.com. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79367 ___ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Try this. Go to http://radiotime.com/. This is the provider of the streams that the Radio (mysqueezebox.com) uses. Search for your station.
