As I said itās all the streams, metadata or no metadata, when I tried this morning. Just tried again now, the normal flac seemed to work but still took about ,30secs to get going. The metadata one now plays took twice as long to start playing but drops in and out all the time. Some progress I suppose but not ideal.
And it just bombed out with same error on non metadata. Back to the drawing board. Also this is across all endpoints, wired or WiFi.
Ok, the flacm streams may be fragile, but you ought to be getting solid streams on the other flac ones.
Do you want me to move your problem over to #support?
Ttried it using Vtuner on my Naim system, the non metadata ones play ok, but the metadata ones are choppy am skip and stop/start. But they start a lot quicker than Roon as well.
So the non-metadata streams are OK on the Naim, but not with Roon?
(Probably worth ignoring the metadata ones for this issue as those are known to be temperamental)
FWIW Iāve added alternative streams http://stream.radioparadise.com/flacm etc
to each station. See if it helps. I had problems with these a few days ago but they look better now.
Still OK here. Unfortunately you seem to be getting problems others arenāt (hence the support thread). So to keep the posts together, Iāll move these over to there.
It does seem slow to start sometimes - I have mentioned this to Roon.
I believe the metadata streams are hiccuping outside Roon too - Iāve just tried VLC on mellow mix with metadata and got a dropout.
As RP have said, the streams are āsomewhat experimentalā.
As regards the āunknownā appellation, if that is what you see, then that is the word being sent by RP - in other words, that is the metadata!
No worries, and thanks for very quick check and response .
It was mainly meant as data point in case this was still actively being investigated. All seems to point at Radio Paradise still working things out. Meanwhile happily switched to Radio Bluesflac ā¦ with metadata and 15 minutes in without hickups
