Topic: Shoutcast Issues

Is anyone else experiencing playback issues with Shoutcast over the past few days? I can see the streams in the list but cannot play them. All 3 of my C1 devices and the Dash have the same issue.

status.chumby.com says all services online.

Re: Shoutcast Issues

We don't operate the streams, so our status has no effect on whether or not they play.

Wow.. Ok.

I dug a bit deeper and found that WinAmp had a major upgrade for Shoutcast streaming which caused most streams to go offline.

Re: Shoutcast Issues

There must be some old links in their system too. I can listen to some but others don't work. Some take a few seconds to start. Once in while I have to restart to get it to work at all.
