Audio Streaming Conundrum

Spike · Post by **Spike** » 26th Aug, '09, 17:35

I've been happily using Real Player to listen to internet radio stations for a few years now. All of a sudden, without me dicking around with any settings, internet audio streams keep stopping an starting, or starting then stopping altogether. In between starting and stopping music tracks skip. The same thing is happening with Windows Media Player when I listen to radio. The strange thing is that when I listen to BBC radio via their iPlayer it works fine.

Anyone had experience of this?

Have you checked the battery in your pace maker ?

Upgraded Real Player recently? Maybe not upgraded? Internet connection from your side too slow (heartlands...)

there were reports of lines down recently, possible?

Aug 12 - A segment of the Asia-Pacific Cable Network 2 (APCN2) undersea cable network between China and Taiwan suffered a serious cable fault on Wednesday, causing Internet traffic to be rerouted onto other undersea cables and slowing Internet access for some users in Southeast Asia.

Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel), which is an investor in APCN2, said its users may experience slower Internet access than normal to some U.S. Web sites, blaming the APCN2 fault on damage caused by Typhoon Morakot.

or has it been fixed?

I've never tried that with Realplayer but I'll try anything once.
