Is it just me???

confuzzed · Permanent State of Confusion

I am having terrible buffer problems for about the last hour.

ray925 · Darth Raydar

I've been getting buffered a lot on iTunes. Got totally booted about 15 minutes ago and had to restart the player.

1maple · Chairman Of The Board

I just got on and started having biffer problems right off.

Glad to hear it's not just my machine.

Sparky · Phat Cat EL Presidente

It seems like I get kicked off about every hour hour and a half or so every day. Anyone else?

JD The Jazz Doctor · Grand Poobah

After you get booted, does it come back on right away?

1maple · Chairman Of The Board

Mine comes back after a few seconds, just doing it real frequently today.

Biffer problems?!?! I can be soooo fat fingered.

Sparky · Phat Cat EL Presidente

No, I usually have to click on another station and then click on FFR again.

JD The Jazz Doctor · Grand Poobah

Is the other station buffering too, or is it just FFR, Spark?

thumperglh · Thumptastic: Chef of the Stars

I haev to many problems to list.

I get buffed out usually about 5 minutes once or twice a day.

sometimes my puter freezes completely and I have to reboot.

Sparky · Phat Cat EL Presidente

You know...I don't actually know, I haven't listened to any other station for so long I couldn't tell you. Being serious here! I know it does it both at home and at work for me. I have just kind of lived with it for about 8 months.

JD The Jazz Doctor · Grand Poobah

well thanks for your faithfull listenership!!

I know that live365 has been updating their servers, mostly on the weekends. I hope part of this will help with the buffering. I get that sometimes too when I listen.

I think that if it were a freeze frame problem, you wouldn't be able to hear the station at all until Riggs were to reboot things on our end.

Sparky · Phat Cat EL Presidente

Yah, I don't think its a FFR problem. Its ok it doesn't really bother me.

CP · Lord of the Lair

I have had no problems up until now, and finally tortured you all with Cher's Walking in Memphis. Now I get buffering problems and am missing the song.

Jeremy Riggs · 2011 Super Bowl Champions!

Hey gang,

I just stopped in on my break and read this thread about the buffering issues.

It just so happened we just had another drop while I was sitting here, so I was able to check the software and I'm happy to report it is a live365, as our software was momentarily unable to connect with them.

The 32k stream is working well however, it hasn't been disconnected in over 24 hours, so if you can put up with the slightly lower sound quality you may want to use that stream for a little bit (well, until it fills up anyway)

MzHartz · Permanent Vacation

I haven't had any drops for a while, and I actually use the 32k stream during the day most of the time too. You said you needed people to listen to it to up the TLH, and I don't count as a slot because I'm a VIP, and I don't notice any sound quality differences.
