Radio station seemingly broken

I on a daily basis listen to my free itunes radio station from home to work from my phone, then pick up the rest of the day on my mac at work. Today though, one of my radio stations seems to be looping three songs that i had flagged to not play again. Im not sure how to fix this problem other than dont play that station.

The problem is starting to spread. I have three radio stations that I listen to per artist. It happens primarily when im at work, but I will flag a song to never play again. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt, but i hit thie button and providing i have skips left, the song will stop playing and go to the next one, but the next one is the exact same song i just flagged to not play again. So i flag it again to not play again (thinking its another version of the song) and it plays again.

  • Can't get radio station, seems pc users can

    HI, I'm trying to get a radio station from a certain site. iTunes does not list this small station. Site says I need Windows Media Player and Flash player. I have both. Can someone with a Mac try to get the station and tell me if you know why I'm not getting it or if its possible to get it? Station should be at www.amistadradiogroup.com , look to upper right and click on meter right under "listen live". Can you get it? Why? Thanks

    Hi, rothis, and welcome to Apple Discussions. I can't listen to the station either, through Safari or the latest Firefox: WMV, Flip4Mac and QuickTime all refuse to play it. So it isn't just you, but audio/multimedia stuff isn't my strong suit, and I don't know what to suggest.

  • Where can I find KUSC radio station? It seems to have disappeared.

    Where is KUSC? It and all of the other radio stations seems to have disappeared.

    And then you'll find it in Music under Internet...

  • We've updated computers at the radio station...now missing an 'important' FX feature query

    Good Morning fellow users,
    We've updated our computers at the 6 radio stations I work for...all 6 production rooms and studios (for those not using VoxPro, myself included:)) to newer, core 'i' machines from the old school Pentium 4s we had which were on their last let (yet ran Audition 3.X) just fine. The newer machines are nice. They're signifcantly quicker chewing through mp3s, conversion betweeen and to different formats...but obviously, it's older softare that isn't able to take advantage of 64Bit or Multiple cores...so other than having a more reliable, speedier version...until we can convince the 'suits' to be that we need to bump up to the latest version, we'll be using said 3.X
    That said, one of the main features we've been unable to figure out how to get back to our defaut 'edit' screen is the little volume knob that pops up while a segment of the audio is selected. IE, you've clicked and dragged a portion of the existing audio in the edit screen to 'turn it white'. In the little area above selected audio file, in the 'white/selected' area....we (used to) have a small volume icon that allowed for automatic amplifcation with a simple click and drag of the mouse (either right or left for volume 'up or down'). It looks as though the engineer did re-image each machine with the corporate Audition disc---however, it's showing as Audition 3.0 in the "About Audition" tab under Help. Isn't or wasn't there an updated to at least 3.1 or 3.01?  Just wanted to double check as I run the 'new' Audition on my Macs for my home business--and I'm really enjoying it:)  However...3.X, IMHO is one of, if not THE Best Wave editor...for it's time, in the History of Wave/Simple editing and production on the run. Since the Syntrillium/Cool Edit days, I've used it (since transitioning from SAW in the mid 90's).  So it's been a bit tough to get acquainted with my Mac version....I just don't see the update happening in 'corporate' radio for some time. It took a whole lotta time, effort, and bureaucratic BS just to get the new hardware. We'll go to battle for the software in this year's budget (not to be distributed til next year---likely 3rd or 4th quarter:))....so must make do with the 3.X for now.
    Lastly, we're gettin a studder after a quick edit. Say I'm cutting a 30 second spot...4 or 5 seconds of dead handles, maybe a slip in the middle...total of 43 second sound file. I quickly cut the front handle, but left click dragging to the start, hit delete, hit space bar....studder, studder for about 2-3 seconds before it works itself out. Is there a cache setting I'm missing somewhere? If I go back and play from the beginning the file is just fine. No issues. Just that initial playback after edit. It's annoying but not a deal killer. Easily gotten used to. 
    In radio, as our jobs (and hats we wear) have become more and more "Life in the production room" producing for smaller markets, voice-tracking, commercial and audio produciton/voice over--again, for the smaller markets that these days are running 'jock-less'....Audition has easily become my number 1 tool in the box. Just a couple quirks I'd like to get worked out for the rest of our air/prod staff. I was, in fact, very happy with the older machines---each of our 'Workspaces' set up as we liked. Unfortunately, we ALL know how the engineers work. They get the new machines, pull the old, re-image and THEN send out that email. Ugghhhhh!  After almost 30 years in the buz, I sometimes miss when ALL they dealt with was RF and transmitters:)  We fixed our own 'work-stations' by writing out 3x5" index cards and bulk erasing carts, donuts (reels), and opening fresh, new vinyl from the labels:)
    Thanks for your time!

    Thanks MusicConductor
    Have I in some way 'messed' with the RealTek driver by disabling sounds? After reading your reply I actually went and looked at the back panel of the computer. I was blown away...as you're correct, we are using the internal/stock sound card!  That's never been the case, as our engineer has always put a pro card---usually, if memory serves, a PCI/PCI-E Digigram card. However...with this new workstation he put in, he's utilizing the onboard, RealTek software/stock internal solution.  To date, it's worked well...however, Audition crashed last week and we had to do a full install of the program again yesterday. Cut both yesterday and today's shows and the stuttering is back. Sounds in Windows are 'off' and cache/buffer sizes have been increased. I'll continue to play this week...and I still have to update to 3.01 after the fatal error with the software last week.
    Thanks again...and if there's something I should not do with the Realtek software, can you be more specific?  I'm not sure I've messed with anything pertinent. We've got both ins and outs (from the sound card) separated into stereo RCA for both in and output. Sound quality seems to be just fine. (No noise/hiss or otherwise unnecessary or unwanted artifacts).  Maybe this is the issue. The onboard sound card. As I mentioned, in past systems we've used Lynx or Digigram pro cards. I'm kind of surprised to see us using the internal/stock card. As you say though, we've gone through some evolution with the isolation and performance of on board sound.  The RealTek driver version is 6.0.1.6392. One other question....in 'shared' mode...should I be running 24bit 48000Hz or 24bit 44100Hz?  Again...this is primarily used for saving down to MP3, transferring to our proprietary "Next Gen" system in generic MP3 flavor...so Next Gen can wrap it in it's own proprietary WAV format. In this case, is there a reason I shouldn't just be running it at 16bit 44100? In the control panel I have it set to 'No sounds' in sound scheme and in the lower "Program Events' box, I've selected '(None)'. Is this as 'deep' as I can get in the sound settings?
    Thanks again. This stuttering isn't normal...and with the inherent speed increase (CPU) and RAM update, as well as a speedier drive (7200rpm), I'm not sure the cause. The last and older system (Pentium IV) was also updated to Windows 7---so it did work fine with the current OS albeit on the older spec'ed machine.

  • I work at a radio station and my podcast got denied thru iTunes!

    I work at a radio station and we do a live local band show every week.  We wanted to have the previous episodes setup as podcasts but for some reason iTunes has denied our feed.  We have permission from all the artists to use their music so not sure why there is an issue.
    Feed is: http://rockthefox.podbean.com/feed/
    I have a case number of 520580144 and my original case number of 294306745.   We are now 4 weeks into our live show and yet the archived shows are still no where to be found on iTunes.
    Please help...these Chicago local bands are waiting to be heard!
    Thanks,
    JP

    There appears to be no technical problem with the feed, so it seems likely that the reason for rejection is that the Store staff suspect you of breaching copyright in the manner of countless other 'mix' podcasts.
    I can only suggest emailing them at podcasts 'at' apple.com and explaining the situation.

  • Can't create Christmas radio station.

    I've created a Christmas radio station.  I've only added Christmas songs.  I might have about 25 examples.  I guess you con't tie down the genre or it can't learn the genre because every third song is not a Christmas song.  I don't know that theres a question here as much as I'm just putting this info out to see if others have similar issues.  It's seems to be a limitation of iTunes Radio.

    The Genre of ALL the files in the playlist must be "Christmas" (or "Holiday") if you want to make a station based on Genre.
    This won't affect what others have put in their playlists if you select a station from iTunes radio, but if you create your own, it will.

  • ITunes Radio - How do I get back a radio station

    I lost one of the radio feeds (Air America) to be exact...it won't play anymore, it won't make the connection. How do I get it back? I've tried to "Open Stream" but that doesn't work either.

    iTunes should refresh the radio stations when you open and close the disclosure triangle for the genre.
    If a station does not show up it MAY not be available.
    A work around, is to find the stream .m3u file on the website, click and download it, then add it to iTunes. This will place the link to the stream in the Music section of your library. You will then have access to the stream from there and anywhere else that you can access the Music section of iTunes from (ex: Front Row).
    You can see the Air America link if you get info on the stream, but using that m3u or trying to play the stream right now just creates silence. It looks like it is down.
    Air America seems to have different services and they may be moving to a charging model. I can't find a free stream for anything but real or windows.
    Good Luck,

  • UK Radio Stations

    Hello! Having searched the forums extensively for the snwer there still seems to be none to my questions.
    How do you listen to UK radio stations or stations not listed in the iTunes radio directory?
    Some people say about selecting the right country. The only country selection I can see is for language, and for English, it's as though England doesn't exist. The default is United States.
    Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi Zev,
    Thanks for that. I checked the BBC website but they just say they aren't planning any distribution through iTunes.
    I had seen the radiofeeds.co.uk site earlier but that now I have the right page of links radio stations links that can play in iTunes, I can't however seem to copy the stream URL to the clipboard, it just opens up player on the site.
    Hopefully there will be more support for it soon.
    Thanks again.

  • Apple TV 2 shows Playlisted Radio Station Genres under Music.

    It's more annoying than anything else, but Apple TV and Apple Remote show Radio Station Genres while browsing Music Genres on my PC library. Naturally, when you select that Genre the either device reports 'No Songs' in the libray.
    In order to remember three Internet Radio Stations, I dragged them into a Playlist titled Radio Stations on my PC library. As a result, those 'odd' Genres now show up under Music as described above when using Apple TV to access my library or using Apple Remote on my iPhone to access my library.
    I guess the only way to stop seeing those Radio Station Genres is to delete the Radio Station Playlist, but then that sort of defeats the purpose of using that function for when I'm sitting in front of my PC.
    Am I missing a simple solution?
    Thanks.

    Thanks, Gino.
    I was thinking that would be the case.
    It is odd, however, that when I use Apple Remote to control the Apple TV and use 'Computers' to access my PC library rather than swipe 'Control' (or the Apple TV remote itself), the Music Genres show up correctly; as in without displaying the Radio Station Genres!
    It's when I control my PC library directly with Apple Remote or access my PC library with Apple TV that the Radio Station Genres appear under Music.
    It does seem a bit inconsistent and a not intuitive.
    Oh, well. Thought I'd ask!

  • VLC Lua Plugin for Digital Imported Radio Stations

    Due to several reasons I currently need to play music using my client instead of mpd on my server. While I often listen to Digital Imported, I do not own an account there (and don't want one, escpecially not for each site), so I am stuck with their flashplayer, which let my old notebook make some noise by the fan.
    First I created a parser in python, which sucks the needed information from their site(s), but then I stumbled across a(n) (old and partially broken) json-interface to their services. Since I already had VLC installed and was curious about doing something with Lua, I created a simple script for my purpose.
    Disclaimer (mainly for the mods)
    This is completly legal. All the script does is to grab the stream from the streamurl, using their on api/interface, which leads to bypass some dumb javascript checks, which try to force you to create an account for using an external player. You will also get their advertisements - same as using the flashplayer, so no illegal stuff in here.
    Sites included
    dI.fm
    jazzradio.com
    rockradio.com
    sky.fm
    Issues
    Due to multihtreading in VLC, the lists must be sorted manually by clicking on the appropriate columnheader
    Since the URLs point to .pls files, selecting an entry will open a new node instead to play the stream, so one needs to select twice
    Because their interface is partially broken, some stations will only be reachable in .mp3 instead of .aac
    The VLC service used to fetch json data (vlc.stream) will not follow HTTP headers, so the lists will be sometimes empty (sites return 206 instead of 200).
    Installation
    Create ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/sd and ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/sd/modules directories
    Put the code below into the file ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/sd/di_vlc.lua
    Link /usr/lib/vlc/lua/intf/modules/common.luac to ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/sd/modules/common.luac

    until line ~= nil
    return json.decode(string)
    end
    lazy_loaded = true
    end
    function descriptor()

    for key, data in pairs(stations) do
    local site = "http://www."..data[1]
    local url = "http://listen."..data[1].."/public"..data[2]

    end
    end
    end
    end
    Usage
    Restart VLC and open the playlist. On the left side, below Internet, you should find a new entry called DI Radio Stations. Click it and have fun.
    Comments are welcome.

  • I cannot play radio station with embedded player on Mountain Lion

    Hi all,
    Since buying my first ever Macbook Pro back in April 2012 I have had problems playing radion stations which appear to have embedded player (MWP?). I installed Flip4Mac and have the latest version of [Version 10.2 (603.6)], updated plug-ins for both Google Chrome and Mozila Firefox and still no joy.
    The machine came with Lion 10.7 installed and I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion 10.8. This upgrade didn't help with the problem either. The radio station im am trying to listen to is www.radiovaleam.com
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    GGQB

    Thanks Varjak Paw!
    I know this particular radio station is very hit and miss as far as being on air is concerned, but the problem that I am having is that the controls on their page are not shown by my browsers on Mountain Lion, as shown in the picture below:
    Any idea where I am going wrong here? All my systems seems to be up-to-date and working well, with the exception of instances like this particular one, and always to do with some media formats.
    Best wishes,

  • Listening to streaming/online radio stations?

    Hi there!
    Is anyone here who manages to listen to MP3 streaming radio stations? shoutcast.com requires flash, so it does not work with my slide 3600.... The *.pls playlists from mobtuner.com  are not recognized by my phone, though the 3600 slide could play streaming MP3 it does not recoginze *.pls files. I can only shake my head when i look at this....
    So, who of you listens to such stations and what Nokia do you use?
    Best regards
    Malte

    i found the easiest is to use Internet Radio in the radio applications within Series60 phones. again, Nokia seem to be putting the top-notch features in Series60 phones rather than Series40, in order to differentiate the phone ranges. It seems that you are indeed searching for many features not available in Series40 but are standard on Series60. Actually, it might not be a bad idea for you to buy a N-series or other Series60 device, maybe one that has been on the market for a while and isn't that expensive, in order for you to satisfy your mulitmedia cravings. I have a N78 and i think now its price point is getting quite cheap, so maybe you can pick up something similar for a bargain
    If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

  • Garageband picking up strange radio stations with Griffin Guitar cable?

  • How can I listen to Jazz FM (UK radio station) through iTunes please?

    Hi guys,
    Does anyone know how I can add Jazz FM to my list of radio stations to listen to through iTunes?
    I tried going to the website and copying and pasting what I think is the correct streaming URL into the 'Open Audio Stream...' option in iTunes. The radio station's name appears in the library but there is no sound and nothing appears to be happening.
    Hope you can help.
    Thanks.

    Hello, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Are you using the following URL
    http://jazzstream.tlrc.net/jazzfmplayer/?region=4
    From what I can tell. The website depends on Windows Media Player, Has a built in Web Player in their website. So it does not seem that this particular website has a link capable of broadcasting via iTunes via a stream as it depends on Windows Media Player.
    You can contact the station and see if they provide an alternative link for iTunes or even submit a request to their web support team that this is something you would like to see.
    You can also submit feedback to Apple and recommend Jazz FM as a station you would like to see listed as a choice of stations to listen to via the iTunes Radio

  • What is best ASIO card for CC for radio station, windows 7 64 bit?

    We are broadcast radio station switching to Windows 7 64 bit computers, running trial version of Audition CC as replacement to our current Audition 3.  Our used sound card is skittish, looking to buy new in two machines.  Currently, recording is unreliable, skips at times, clips at times.  Current card is Digigram vx222 v 2.  Can't get that driver to show as option for cc.  ASIO4ALL works sometimes, but not sure that all features are enabled. 
    This is one of two machines for automation software.  We use Simian Pro 2.2--which is working fine with the card, although we aren't using the voice tracker to see if Audition will work. 
    Question is, if we were to buy new ASIO cards for these machines, is there any brand or model that works best with CC?   Would be a bonus if it is a good fit for Simian as well, but that doesn't seem to be as fickle as Audition is.
    Thanks so much for any way you can help me.  Once we know we can operate CC reliably, we plan to subscribe.  Until then though I am reluctant to pull the trigger.
    Diane, the flustered radio station manager

    It's been my experience that cards made specifically for radio tend to be a lot more finicky than Audition has ever been. They are generally designed to work well with specific software (like Simian), and the drivers are tailored specifically to deal with that. Audition, on the other hand, is designed (certainly on PCs) to work specifically with ASIO - and there are loads of good ASIO sound devices about. Your real issue will be to find one that will work with Simian, I think. If you just want a seriously good card that will work with Audition, then have a look at what RME have - their stuff is excellent. I have an RME Fireface UFX, which is an absolutely stunning device.
    BUT.... I had a look at Simian's current position. As ever, they are way behind the field but it looks as though they are only going to claim compatibility with AudioScience devices. AudioScience claim that their ASIO drivers are okay, but it's rather telling that they had to produce a sheet specifically dealing with Audition, and that's about Audition 2 - which is truly ancient history! Digigram I hold out no hope for.
    Radio soft and hardware (with the exception of Audition) mostly come from the dinosaur age, and unfortunately I think you may have to accept this, and divorce editing and programme production from transmission, just using a compatible file server between them. Just go for a decent ASIO sound device for Audition, and wait for everything else to catch up.

Maybe you are looking for
