New Naim Internet Radio - Feedback & Requests - Part 3

Hi all,

A quick update on some recent worthy changes in the directory:

Forever Classics 60’s, Australia

A new network on FM and DAB focusing on music from the 60’s. Currently in 96kbit AAC.

Rock FM, Radio Regenbogen, bigFM and RPR1, Germany

all part of ATSW. Resync’d to their latest distribution spreadsheet. Image cache in the iOS/Android app may need to be manually flushed to see correct artwork as many images have changed.

2RS, Germany

Again resync’d to latest distribution set. Image cache in the iOS/Android app may need to be manually flushed to see correct artwork as many images have changed.

Radio Norge, Norway

Their web streams (decades channels) have now been opened up, rather than needing a subscription. Added to the system.

Vinyl, Norway

Some decade channels added.

radio Rock, Norway

Their web streams (decades channels) have now been opened up, rather than needing a subscription. Added to the system.

Topp, Norway

Topp Trending channel added.

Enjoy

Hi @Stevesky I notice the HD stream from Groove Salad has gone AWOL over the past few days, presumably something at their end? FWIW the stuttering stopped a few weeks ago and it had been very stable. Thanks

Haven’t had it on for a few days, but just tried it – you’re right, no one at home…!?

I’ve also found it’s been better the last few weeks, though there was often some stuttering/interruptions at one particular time, for about 20mins or so each day, about 10.30am AWST ….before and after that, absolutely fine…Weird.

See here:

What does this have to do with Groove Salad…?

Confusing my Grooves!

Lol! No worries…

Forgive me if everyone else already knows the answer but me, did I notice somewhere that new naim radio is coming to older streaming products (specifically 272 and Muso 1) at some point?

Yes, it’s coming.

Thanks Richard. Is there an eta yet?

Not that I’m aware of unless @stevesky has an idea.

If you haven’t ask Santa for it yet, you might be a bit late now. Have you been Good!

Hi @Hollow

Re: Groove Salad HD - their website is saying the stream is not available at the moment, so nothing we can do about it. For now the 320k stream will need to be used instead.

On this lossless one it does seem quite experimental at Soma (hence glitching/time of day loading issues etc). We’ve kept it in the radio directory as it was getting better, but if it doesn’t return by mid jan 25 we’ll remove it.

Regards

Steve

Thanks for that Steve

Unlikely, I know, but has anyone managed to use the “Added stations” facility to add the Greatest Hits radio premium (advert free) URL by any chance? (No laughing at the back please :joy:)

I have tried and only managed to get the standard one with adverts so have to continue using the Greatest Hits app and airplay. ( I contacted them directly, but with no success)

Hi @Hollow

I contacted the team who run Groove Salad and the encoder in their data centre has failed and needs a physical visit to the data centre to sort it out, It indicates it will be a job for early 2025.

For now I’ve patched the flac feed reference back to the aac feed from our side, Once the lossless feed is working again we’ll review state of play.

Thanks for the feedback Steve

Thanks Steve.
Hopefully someone pulls a finger out, gets over to the server, reboots and all is sorted in not too distant time…! :roll_eyes:
