Vtuner down

Still or again down in NL, just did another reset of phone, app, wifi, router, modem and streamer including unplug, and everything works a-ok except for no internet radio at all.

Tried the ā€˜turn it off and turn it on againā€™ tip in the sticky, but still nothing. I guess we have to wait for a proper fix, in the meantime there are various workarounds described in this thread ā€¦ me, Iā€™m watching TV instead :rofl: :rofl:

pay twice you mean.

It worked for a while earlier today, but Vtuner effectively seems gone again. For top2000 listeners in the NL, there NPO2 app on Android and iPhone thankfully works with Chromecast

Was back working this morning in Dublin but gone again the last few hours. Personally find the internet radio/vtuner app very disappointing from a usability perspective (search is poor and range of stations limited). This hasnā€™t helped.

You can search stations on the app just like albums etc except the results are concealed on the top listing and you have to open it to view, Iā€™ve not noticed a limited selection - lots available by location or genre

Down in NY

You can have a go now for sure :sweat_smile:

Down in NSW Australia so clearly a world-wide problem.
As Steve said in the sticky, itā€™s likely to be up and down as they get the main server up and running.
Iā€™m sure it will be up and running properly before too long.


vtuner is still down

Down in Quebec, Canada : ) using AirPlay to play holiday music as this is fixed. It was working earlier today, but I installed new network gear and I unplugged the Musos just few hours ago, since absolutely nothing. Behaviour is very weird, restoring history is super slow and then nothing.

Iā€™m sure theyā€™ve been hacked and asked for ransom to unlock. Itā€™s happening all the time these days. If they ever get this service back up I would still recommend looking elsewhere for radio if stability is important. Iā€™m listening to radio via Audirvana without any issues.

Beyond unacceptable, Naim need to be at helm here, you could have a 500k Naim rig and now its a brick, Iā€™m looking to contact these people even though they hide on the internet. I will keep you posted. I want answers.

No Gary, it is not AT ALL like Spotify. which has to store and manage delivery of millions upon millions of music tracks. vTuner is simply handling a links to other servers, it is not storing or playing the music. In the grand scheme of things, itā€™s not a very difficult task and there is no excuse for down times this long. In the past 15 years, I have never had an internet service disruption that was more than a couple of hours and 1 one that was actually ā€œsystem-wideā€ and not a wiring failure in the neighbourhood.

Thank you very much!

Down in Chicago too!

Hi, again this morning it does NOT work any more than internet radio. That is absurd ! !!!
They do these on the festive days. It would take a fine fine from the competent bodies to control the service !

Not quite a brick, good few ways to work around what should be a temporary outage for iRadioā€¦admittedly one that seems to be going on for an unusual whileā€¦.

Considering the VTuner service costs nothing re subscription fees for us all, Iā€™m not sure how high the soap boxes should beā€¦.:man_shrugging:
