|
sometimes using itunes and wmp, the stream will repeat the same 10 seconds then buffer and fail. reconnecting it will repeat this process. i hate it. why does it do this?
i have to either restart my pc and close all my apps or play it inside the browser which i hate 
is it my problem or the vip stream? |

I never had this problem on my PC so I can't really help, thejoyrider.
All I can say is, it's been reported in the forums before and it seems like re-occuring problem.

I hope admins will be able to help.

I'm having the same problem with winamp, don't know what causes it - but I'm listening on pc. Sometimes it helps to connect to stream #2, then remove the puffered stream in the playlist-editor of winamp.

An admin can fix this problem. Just let us know and we can fix this within 5 minutes. Best way is to contact an admin directly or via a moderator. |

ok, so what can you do? ive noticed it still happens sometimes. more so with itunes. i dont turn off my pc. i hybernate it instead. i guess a fresh restart would solve it, but i shouldnt really have to do that. |

It is not a problem at the listeners side. It is a stream problem. We admins can give the "offending" stream a virtual bump. |

I'd be very glad if someone would give this stream a bump!
it' esp annoying today - I've been listening for 20 min and had 2 buffered streams which repeat eyery time I started Winamp new.
Now I started Winamp again - same problem, but now I can listen on stream 3

itunes froze again. repeated the sane 20 seconds of good will hunting before rebuffering to play the same 20 seconds on loop. had to use media player instead. |
