Yesterday I did, but today it's working fine! Must've been net congestion as Teina said (see I can spell it correctly! lol) Hmm.. funny how your band FANG sounds just like LA's Face To Face, so I guess that means I like 'em!
I'm on 56k modem, come thou xtra, wee jump at beinging of each track but otherwise all good .... i take back every muttered swearword about thin pipes and the vids this well makes up for it, bigger play list soon?
god i might have to cry this is so good
hmmm i am using a 56k on 33.6 telephone lines (how fuckin frustrating is that, stupid telecom monopolistic bullshit) and whenever i go to load up another page or do anything on the net, it has to rebuffer. my modem also seems to not want to work when it doesnt have to.... reluctantly rebuffs every little while.......
sounds like you've got a noisy phone line, if you've got multiple phone jacks around your house.
To fix it and get faster modem speeds, install a second phone line and use that exclusively for internet.
ok, so my 'huh huh im gonna make fun of this person's slight spelling mistake and think that im really funny' strategy probably isnt making me too many friends :s
I'm at home and I've connected OK. The stats show that the number of connections available was maxed out for a while so I'll have to move shoutcast server tomorrow.
As for the buffering problem, there's not a lot that can be done. I've turned the streaming rate down to 24k which is the lowest and it still happens, but a little less often. It all depends on your connection. It worked great on 32k the other night but I suspect I had a better connection at the time.
So for people on dial-up, I suggest you lobby your ISP for cheap broadband. It's a NZ based stream so it should be cheap for them too.
Out here in the "wop wops" of Cali USA (just outside the DSL zone) we can't and probably won't ever get DSL (not enough residents to make it feasible), but dispite the buffer, it sounds great!
hi, loving the radio to bits, but you know how I am a lazy old bag who loves links and needs nzm to tie my shoe laces.... to help me in exploration of newer new zealand music it would be cool to have under the name of track in the now playing box a link to the artists page so I could read up on them as I heard something that peeked my interest.... there seems to be no link from radio.nzmusic.com to this site at all, or can you get to the radio only from this site in the first place?
Well, if you're curious, roll your mouse over the track listing on the radio page. Some artists and tracks have links back to the appropriate pages on nzm.
