Main streams Need 8004 but really you need to have 8000-8150

how can i check if i have these available or if they are blocked?

Pretty much if you can't connect they are blocked. Most place's do. My College doesn't Which is great but my work does . If they are blocked not much you can do. You can try to ask to see if they will un-block them.

yeah they probably block them. wish i could check that. Does all streaming audio use those ports or just subsonic? i was able to listen to streaming at shoutcast

what you should look at is the part after the IP the :8004 is the port. If you check some other shoutcast streams and find something other than 8004 let me know I may be able to set up a relay of the 64k stream with the good port

where do i check that. I am really not a computer person. I also sent an email requesting the status of the ports.

the only ports my school allows is 80 and 443 (the general internet traffic ports)...all others are blocked

none of the streams on on either of those ports, unfortunately.

thanks for trying

I will set up a port 80 stream on the 24k stream. Give me 1 week to do this

sweet thank you very much

just wanted to thank you for port 80 set up

OK, folks, I'm having trouble connecting...but only to the 128k streams. If I use the 64k or 24k streams, all works well. But, when I try the 128k streams, I hear the intro, and then blip, stop.

Now, my guess is that it has to do with the player I'm using: mpd and mpc. I can get the 128k streams to play on audacious, so they are working, just not with mpc. It isn't a speed issue as I can listen to other 320 streams with no problem on mpc. Finally, they used to always work, it's just a recent thing...and I'm stuck trying to figure it out.

could be something with buffer size? I'm not familiar with mpc to know why you can't connect with that but you can with another program.

I'm not familiar with that program either. You have broadband right?

MPD is the Music Player Daemon, and the client I use is the basic mpc which is all command-line based. As for broadband, this is at work, so I could probably saturate my 100 Mbps Ethernet if needed.

I'm beginning to think it's just something mpd doesn't like and I'll ask on the mpd chat & boards. I'll let you know what they think.

ETA: I asked on #mpd and one person there tried the 128k streams and just got the intro repeating over and over...so there something wonky between MPD and SR. I started a thread on the MPD forums, so maybe a dev will see that.
