These stations have moved to a Flash/Audio stream which requires a Flash player to play them. If they are using the encrypted Flash/Audio protocol then there is nothing legal that Logitech (or any 3rd party plugin developer) can do. These stations do not want you to listen on any device except through their Flash based (usually PC) player - you should complain to the stations as loss of listeners is where it hurts them. The possible solution is if the station can be played on iTunes/iPhone/iTouch. Since these devices do not support Flash there is a hidden URL used to play the station on the iPhone/iTouch - get iTunes to show that URL and then use it to get SB player to play the station. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78791 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio Station not available?
Yeah, Clear Channel it is. I am having the same problem with local stations here in Houston (The Buzz, The Arrow, AM stations, etc). Yours and mine are all owned by Clear Channel. Started about two nights ago. Everything with them stopped working. They are probably the biggest station operator in Houston. The only stations I listened to were these stations...Awesome.

Whether that's just the public line or > reality, I don't know. Here's why they should fix the problem: There are prospective customers (such as me) who have been researching the Squeezebox radio, and who think it sounds fantastic except for two things: lack of battery (apparently in the process of being rectified) and the firmware situation. I have been checking both the Amazon reviews and this forum every few days, waiting to see that both of these problems have been resolved, and when that happens, I plan to place an order for two of them, one for me and one for my wife. I would really love to have one of these things, because 95% of my music listening these days is to internet streams (radio or Pandora mostly) and I don't like having to sit in front of my computer all the time. I'd love to be able to carry the music around the house with me. But I'm not pulling the trigger until I know I won't get a buggy product (and I want a battery pack too, for the above-mentioned portability). I seriously doubt that I'm the only one in this position. Logitech should absolutely fix this issue ASAP. (And yes, I did actually go to the trouble of creating a forum account so I could post this. I hope someone from Logitech reads it.) -- jbunniii jbunniii's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38180 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76938 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

But as bpa points out the station you are trying to play comes from RadioTime and MySB does not currently support AAC playback from RadioTime feeds. How & why this is I don't know. My guess is that the RadioTime AAC feeds are in a format that MySB cannot currently deal with (like the url form that bpa suggests).

Dunno, but I'd guess not very likely to be fixed. MySB (and all prior versions of MySB) has never supported AAC streaming. But it sure seems like more and more stations are going the AAC route so maybe this should be addressed by Logitech, assuming it can do anything about it.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Radio Station not available?
I bought my SBR a couple of weeks ago, got it this week and have been playing around with it. I am very happy with it. It is pretty cool. I was amazed how well it synced to my iTunes on my laptop. Ok so here is my question. Before I bought it, I really wanted to listen to some of the local stations (I live in Austin). My favorite radio station in town is KVET 98.1. Before buying this product, I looked on the squeezebox website and checked to see if 98.1 was available. It was according to the website search page (gave me the green check mark). I got it and it worked great. Even got my radio station. Last night, however I could not pick it up via internet radio. It isn't showing on the list of locals when I go to "internet radio". I went to the squeezebox website and now it is saying that station is not available? I know for a fact it was available before I bought it via their website. Could it have dropped off in 2 weeks? That seems strange. Plus it worked 2 days ago. Here is where it gets even more strange. I noticed that when I had my laptop on and I was connected to it, if I went to "internet radio" it is showing up on my local list. But if I turn off my laptop and hop back on mysb.com it drops off.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Auto-dimmer
I have now successfully rolled back to FW 7.4.1 after installing squeezebox server (thanks for the help, Toby!). The internet streams are MUCH more stable, though there is still an occasional drop-out within the first 30 seconds of play. The alarm is still buggy - comes on then stops almost immediately, but thankfully it no longer goes to that busy disco loop. Here's an issue I haven't seen mentioned: under 7.4, the auto-dimmer works perfectly in a dark room, but the display also lights back up slightly when you use the controls (i.e. change the station, set the sleep function, etc). Then about 30 seconds after your last adjustment it dims again. This was an EXTREMELY useful feature. Under 7.5, once the screen dims it stays dim and you really can't see what you're doing. I have literally had to turn a lamp back on in the room just to operate the radio.

The issue SBS asks RadioTime for an URL something like this Code: http://opml.radiotime.com/Tune.ashx?id=s23196&formats=aac,ogg,mp3,wmpro,wma,wmvoice,real&partnerId=16 Whereas I think MYSB probably asks RadioTime with an URL like this - ensuring no transcoding for SB3 class of players. Code: http://opml.radiotime.com/Tune.ashx?id=s23196&formats=mp3,wma,wmvoice&partnerId=16 The other formats that might require transcoding have been dropped in the "formats" option. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78573 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 2 SB and one PC playing in sync
I was able to get it in sync with two different PC's, a radio a duet, and the control for the duet. Now... that was just once. The next time I tried it, one of those PC's would not sync right, it was always about 500ms ahead or behind no matter what I tried... The other PC seemed to only sync well when it was using the headless version of the software player. There are settings on the squeeze server that let you adjust the timing of each client. I had to fiddle with those a bit to get it right, and I wouldn't expect it to always work with the same settings. Figuring out where the latency issues are occurring might help, are they the sound card buffer, driver, os mixing etc... So many factors might be at play which is why the hardware versions sync better. I've thought about trying a USB sound card passed through to a linux guest os running on vmware server to see if that could create a more stable timing issues on different PC's but I'm not worried enough about it yet. -- zimmer62 zimmer62's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38140 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78780 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

I wouldn't say never, but you would have to be very very lucky to be one of the that gets perfect sync with a software player. That said, if the pc is far enough away from the other players that you can't hear them both at the same time, you could probably live with it. But if two out-of-sync players are within earshot of one another it will surely drive you insane. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78780 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] dropping connection after firmware update

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 2 SB and one PC playing in sync
A bit more info. I suggest looking at SqueezePlay. You can download the latest version from here: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.5. This can be configured to look just like the radio interface so you will be familiar with the interface. Try installing it and then let us know if you have any questions or are ready to try and synchronise.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 2 SB and one PC playing in sync
The sync between hardware and software players would never be perfect anyway... But basically your squeezeboxserver does not put out sound the player does, so on a PC you need one of the software players running. These software player then conects to your server just like any other player on your network. Yes you can have software players on all your PC's not only the one that runs the server. SqueezePlay. SoftSqueeze. SqueezeSlave. These will behave almost like real players via the web-UI or controllers and simulate a player interface on the desktop. Except for SqueezeSlave that runs in the background, not seen on the desktop only via the web-UI or controller. -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe'Primare and Dynadio speakers (including a pair of Contour 4 ) Bedroom/Office: Boom Kitchen: SB3 + powered Fostex PM0.4 Miscellaneous use: Radio (with battery) I use a Controller various ir-remotes and a Eee-PC with squeezeplay to control this Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78780 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 2 SB and one PC playing in sync
A couple of questions. Are you running SqueezePlay on the PC? What version? Are you running SqueezeBoxServer on the PC or do you want to sync MySqueezebox? If it's the latter I believe you are out of luck, but with SBS and Squeezeplay (an up to date build) I think this is quite easy. Are both of your SB's Radio's? In which case start playing SqueezePlay then go to the Synchronise menu on the SBR and chose to syncronise with SqueezePlay. If that confuses you I can break it down even further for you.

With the advent of the newer SB players capable of AAC native playback, I wonder if RadioTime could update how they handle SB players. The way it stands now, if you tell RadioTime you are using a SB device then RadioTime assumes AAC playback is not possible. Maybe they could further segregate SB players? Older and newer? Maybe a check box to tell RadioTime to allow passing AAC streams?
