Anyone having trouble loading the stream today (9/1)?

Anyone else having "burping" buffering problems with the steam again this afternoon?

[mmichaelson]

Never mind. . .it seems to have cleared up. . .must have been a momentary hiccup.

Happily jamming away again....

Argh. . .again with the no streaming. . .up to 20 minutes today that it's been "connecting". any special problems this afternoon?

I too am having problems connecting to the stream. I've been having great difficulty now for the past 2 weeks. No matter if I try from home or work (different cities, computers, OS's), I cannot connect until the afternoon. Other listeners I know locally are having the same connection problem. Seems as though the vendor's streaming servers are overloaded in the AM here in So. Cal. This did not used to be the case - quite frustrating! I've greatly enjoyed listening to this radio station stream for over a year. Sighhh... :confused: I hope Ludwig can resolve this.

Still working well in Sandy Eggo. Maybe it is a local traffic problem.

Well, my problem was different. The steam actually kicked me off, and then I couldn't get back on because it was too full. . .how frustrating is that??
But I have my beloved music today.

For the folks that are having trouble, we are trying to track down the exact cause of the problem but it looks like if you upgrade your Windows Media Player to the latest version it will allow you to listen to the stream. Visit www.windowsupdate.com to download the latest updates for your computer including Windows Media Player 9. You can also email our IT folks at helpme@beethoven.com

Hurray! The stream has connected.
I checked, and I am running the latest version of Windows Media Player... must be a traffic issue here in So. Cal. Living here, you gotta live with traffic problems... even on web radio... sighhh... Yearning for the good old days... hah!

Any ways, I can connect if I keep trying for several hours (!). Persistance pays.
