not getting metadata today, anyone else?

Same here in the UK - stuttering on Squeezebox players in the late afternoon. Both wired and Wi-Fi and internet speeds are ~70Mbps :

Yes, same for me in the UK.  Streams are flakey - the sound skips or the stream disappears and the track data isn’t present.  The problem has occurred for me over both weekend days around 5-00 pm.  Sound quality of all streams is good in the morning (UK time) when a I suspect the servers are quieter.

The Flac eclectic stream isn't working. Could you please fix it? Thanks.

Thanks a heap for rolling this out BillG. Metadata for RP FLAC streams in Roon is a dream come true. I’ll be dropping some more bucks RP’s way.

Now receiving metadata in Roon!

This is fantastic, that you so very much for doing this.

Looks like I'll have to send another donation across asap. :-)

Now getting metadata on my Aurilic Aries g1 😃  brilliant job thanks 😊

Hi Bill, hope you're well. Any update on pushing out the update?

Looking forward to it

Thanks

We've actually already sorted that out & will push out the update later this week.

Hi BillG,

Some Roon users have figured out how to attach RP metadata to FLAC and have setup an experimental stream for demonstration.

Hi,
I have also problems on my Bluesound and every Browser i use!
Music stops every 20-30 seconds for about 2-3 seconds!

I miss this  Radio Station !!!

Hi all, the flac links have suddenly stopped working (on my Aurilic Aries g1) they were working perfectly until yesterday afternoon. Is anyone else having problems?

Love listening to your FLAC streams on my Raspberry Pi with my custom system.   Am using Linux mplayer with ALSA DSP LR4 crossovers on three way speakers.  Awesome!

Yes, it is breaking up for me at the moment too. Was working well earlier today in Australia. May be a congestion issue in Spain at this time of day.

I’ve been told that it is support for ‘icy-metadata’ that is the reason Bluesflac is getting metadata into a FLAC stream with Rocket. Not sure if Icecast supports that or not.

Tried that. Their FLAC stream was unlistenable (sounds like they're overloading their connection) & had no metadata. Perhaps what you're getting isn't really their FLAC stream, or perhaps they're having an issue at the moment.

Not familiar with the Rocket server. We use Icecast. I'll check it out.

Hi Bill,

RP continuing to provide great music at this much needed time, thankyou.

On the page that has the RP FLAC links you say “These links currently do not currently include stream metadata (song title info). Not our choice. We would if we could.”

I wanted to let you know of a FLAC station stream that does include metadata. It’s Radio Bluesflac from Spain. It’s the only one I know of that does and I’m not sure what they are doing right, but it results in clickable links on Roon’s Now Playing page. It would be great to have this for the RP FLAC streams.

Edit: I understand that Radio Bluesflac uses Rocket Streaming, same as RP.

I just wanted to note that FLAC streaming works well on a Raspberry Pi from the command line using omxplayer.

$ omxplayer —vol -3000 http://stream.radioparadise.com/flac

I add the "—vol -3000" parameter to start playing a bit quieter and then adjust volume using +/- keys. There are also parameters to force HDMI or analog audio out.
