Over the past 7 days RP has been dropping out. Is anyone else having issues with this?
Yes, I’ve noticed that on Mellow Mix it occasionally gets “lost” during the station advert part, often repeating it a couple of times with small gaps of silence in between.
It usually picks up again after some seconds.
I don’t know if you are experiencing similar?
Here in the uk RP has been playing all day since the weekend without issue.
Always useful to say where you are located when starting a thread to discuss an issue like this!
At the last count, RP app shows seven feeds - does the issue apply on all, or which one(s) specifically?
Yes, I am getting the same problem also with Mellow mix and the Main mix including the new Beyond. I have also tested the lower bit rate with the same results. I played the hi res Mother station and that played without any problems.
Yes, agreed. I should have stated that I am from the UK also.
Do you get the same problem(s) on a phone or tablet, even a pc or laptop, connected to the same network?
Do you have fttc, fttp or something else?
Trying on my phone now… I have FTTP 900 and I am using eeros Funny enough it has not dropped today so far
It’s interesting that it appears to just be the “intermission” station ID announcement (for want of a better description) that is effected. At least, for me.
To be a little clearer, I find that it makes the Radio Paradise announcement, followed by a few seconds of silence and then another delivery of the announcement, usually again followed by a few seconds of silence - and then it picks up again…..
Given the nature of the issue, I would be inclined to think it to be a glitch with Radio Paradise, rather than my own equipment.
I.E. being only their ID insert that is effected.
Aren’t streaming radio protocols “best effort”?
There’s no way for a client device to request a re-send?
If so, the repeating of the station ID insert can only be instigated by the sending service?
UK ADSL.
I should have stated before that this is an intermittent issue, for me.
Edit: Actually, now I look back, I did mention previously that it is only an occasional problem.
RP works flawless for me as do most stations.
But I do get dropouts on a couple stations.
Sector Geny 80s - Russian I think
Sanctuary Radio - Retro 80s - says it’s located in Westminster CO.
I don’t get dropouts in the music.
It’s just this weird issue with the station ID insert…..
I’m not sure if the OP is also experiencing dropouts during the music.
Seems you have FTTC broadband, same here. No issues.
Worthwhile to post full details on isp, router et al, if you have issues.
