Cant stream WGBH out of Boston in Roon

Support

For some reason, WGBH Jazz 24/7 and other supported WGBH Internet radio stations will not stream in roon. I have tried different addresses including Tune in and I can add the station but it will not stream. I keep getting an error message that the file was interrupted. This is a great station and it is the only Tunein station i have found that won’t stream in roon. WGBH has no idea. Anyone have any thoughts?

odd, the link below streams for me with foobar2000. But won’t work in Roon.

JYes, I tried all these and none worked. It’s odd! Called WGBH and they have no clue! I use Roon a lot so this is annoying as that is a great station. It has to be some glitch in the URL code that gets transferred to Roon. All this digita audio which I love is complicated!

I wonder if someone from @support can try this url and check logs etc. The URL plays on foobar2000. So it’s a good streaming URL. But Roon doesn’t like it for some reason.

Hi @Thomas_Bacon,

I’ve passed this info along to the team for investigation. I’ll be sure to let you know when I receive their feedback here. Thanks for the report!
