Radio down?

I can't start listening to any of the radio channels for e-m at the moment, whether through the web interface, or through winamp's "Open URL" option.

Is this happening for anyone else?

I've made some changes yesterday as things were not working properly with the stand-alone player option (the left triangles on the radio page). There were https:// links generated in that case which can not work on the radio servers.

When enetering an URL manually into a player be sure to use http:// .. for instance

http://electro-music.com:8050

should work for radio 1, and it does so here for VLC on the Mac and Winamp on the PC.

The radio page works fine here in Firefox, what browser are you using?

Oh I see - it is fokking chrome acting up again ... I have no proper solution for that currently ... Crying or Very sad

For a real solution I, or we, will have to change all streaming to be over https and that seems to be supported for shoutcast "premium customers" only ... maybe some proxy trickery can be used tho ... some stations seem to be using that.

I did change the links a bit for the left side play buttons (on the radio page) such that chrome is tricked in downloading the m3u file without complaining - the download can then be opened in your default player. (and also changed the links under the channel logos). This probably will break IE11 compatibility though .. Evil or Very Mad

Anyway, I'll look into this a bit more ...
