Buffering and Freezing on 24K Request Server WMP.

FlaDisFamily · Post by **FlaDisFamily** » Aug Fri 10, 2007 9:50 am

Not sure if this is a bug or an issue on my end.

Occasianly the WMP will "Freeze" up, and the word buffering will appear on the bottom. It never seems to reconnect or finish buffering. Time is random sometimes happening quickly after I log on, others after hours of listening.

I can reconnect by reclicking on the stream, but by keep bringing up the wmp player I tend to draw some Ire from the higher ups.

The 24K server is the only one that can get thru my work issues, as they have blocked all the ports higher then that.

Lil Petty I know, but just wondering if there is something I can do on my end to elp alleviate.

Thanks!

Hmmm...

I'm testing WMP on the 24k stream now. I would recommend downloading winamp, its free and work well with the streams.

Winamp Player

Just get the basic player, its free.

Well at work Big Brother blocks any and all installations on my PC, so thats not an option. Occasionaly I have a tech budy force push it thru, but this is SO far from work related hed probably catch crap for it.

Thanks for the quick response though, and let me know if you encounter the same issue.

So far I've been running WMP for 20min and its been fine. I'll keep listening. Maybe its a bandwidth issue where you are.

I'll keep testing it an let you know.

Stinks about the them locking you out. Maybe time to bribe the IT guy

Its probably on my end, Ive had it up now too for over an hour and no issue. Just strange cause sometimes it does it after 10 minutes sometimes after 2 hours. No real rhyme or reason.

No biggie and I appreacite the help. Wish I knew somone in IT. Ah well, at least I CAN listen.

Thanks for taking a look!
