Radio Margaritaville

Post by parrotheadla »

Radio Margaritaville is not working in the bay area of San Francisco since yesterday. Not sure if its a windows media player issue or an RM issue. I've tested in at numerous locations including XP and Vista and streaming. Does anyone notice the disruption in service?

Could not get RM yesterday on my coputer via windows media player. Everytime I tried to log in it just tried to make the connection and then showed closed.

So then I tried via Real Player and I connected just fine. I'm listening to it now. RM is playing and it is a nice clear feed. No problems. So the problem must be with Windows Media Player.

Everything is on track with the concert tonight cause they keep advertising it and at the scheduled times.

Don't think there is anymore to this than a problem with Windows Media Player.

Has anyone e-mail RM questioning the problem?

See you all tonight on the set list thread.

FINS UP ^^

FYI when the problem started yesterday I was in PA. Today I went to visit friends in MD. But still can't get the connection here with Media Windows Player.

It connected here in with Real Player.

It's definitely a windows media issue on RM's end.

winamp works perfectly
Did you hear the one about me being a punk?
Did you hear the one about me being a drunk?
Did you hear the one about me losing my nerve?
Or how I'm just another f**** sheep in the herd?
Did you hear the one about me giving a s***?
Cause if I ever did I don't remember it.
