SKIPPING PROBLEM


Hey guys.

I'm not sure if this is on our end or Loudcity's.  We've had this happen before and it's turned out to be them.

However, there's a few things I can try to see if it's us.

FIRST.  It's not the cable.  I didn't make the switch to LITE yet, and I just ran a speed test to make sure that Time Warner didn't sneak the change in there without my knowing it.  But they haven't, we're still at Turbo Speed and will be for another week and a half.

Next is to try a reboot of the station computer.  I'm doing that now.

If someone could let me know in about three minutes if it's any better I'd appreciate it.

OK,

Can you try tuning in again and let me know if it's still skipping?

OK.

The only other thing it could be our end is the router, but I don't think that's it because I just tried playing poker and it worked (normally a goofy router keeps the online poker from working).

Alright then.

it's not our connection, it's not the broadcast computer, it's not the router.

The last thing I can do is reset the relays at Loudcity. If that doesn't work I'm afraid we have to wait it out for them to fix it.

I'll let you know once I've reset the relays.

Now the request list, request queue, now playing, etc pages are timing out. It looks like my server can't connect to the broadcast computer to get the info.

I'm showing good ping times and traceroutes to the broadcast computer so it seems the connection is there, just not getting any data back.

I checked out another station on Loud City, and I haven't had any drops. (Though, honestly, this station sucks, so I'm turning it off now.)

Yeah, like a distorted bell has been added to it or something.  Weird.

Yeah, it sounds like someone is banging a high pitched gong along with the beat of the music.

And still buffering. hmm.gif

I don't know what to do. I've checked everything on my end. I think we're going to have to shut down for awhile.

Please check back after 12 PM Central.
