Technical Problems - Streaming Malfunctions

Posted: September 30, 2007 - 2:41pm

If the Tapers' Section or Grateful Dead Hour streams (or any other streams that may appear from time to time) aren't working for you, please post here. In some cases, your fellow Heads will come to your assistance. In others, the Rhino techs may have a fix for the problem. In others, we may have a can't-get-there-from-here issue, but really, we'll do our best. Thanks!

Tapers Section -> 10/1-10/7/07: song mixup?

Hi,

First off i'd like to say i've been enjoying the music - both mp3's and streaming with the resident player - though the mp3's were much more reliable. Thanks folks.

That said, this week's selections seem to have some technical problems:

1. when i click on the Sugaree-Minglewood Blues link, even though the title is correct on the player, it plays Music Never Stopped.

2. the link for Scarlet Begonias brings up the player with a "?" and no sound.

i'm sure these problems can be easily corrected.

Thanks again, and Leave It On!

Scarlet?

the Scarlet works for me, Delta. I've reported Sugaree/Never Stopped mix up.

We THINK the tech folks have fixed this and the Sugaree link should actually play Sugaree now. If, however, this is not happening for you, please speak up. Thanks!

problems fixed

Scarlet works for me today, and the Sugaree>Minglewood is playing (and sounding great) instead of Music Never Stopped, as it should.

Thanks for passing the word, and thanks to the fixit person!

'Jam' from Sep 17-23 Taper's Section

I'm not sure if this has been noted previously but the 9/21/68 studio Jam from the week of Sep 17-23 has no link. The Clementine Jam has a link (and it's great!) so I'd love to hear the Jam as well.

Sorry if I've misunderstood and it's a Clementine Jam/Jam rather than two separate tracks but the wording suggests it is indeed two different jams.

Thanks!

Don't know the answer, but will pass this on. Thanks for reporting.

streamin'

Hi,
I was able to get everything this week to work, with some effort. (Clicking "play" 4,5,6 times or closing my browser and reopening it, again several times.) However, I can't get the Beat It On Down the Line, The Eleven..., nor 1966 Not Fade Away, all from the 2.05.07 Taper's Section to play. The "Clip Player" opens but will not play. Doesn't matter whether I try Windows Media (my preference) or QuickTime. Thanks!

Quicktime stream not working

I have Windows Vista. Quicktime streams don't work in IE 7 or Firefox 2. Yes, I have latest QT plugins installed.

I think somebody posted a workaround for this that involves dropping back to IE 6, but since I'm on a Mac I'm going to wait for them to come along and explain. Is it working okay in Windows Media?

Vista

I'm using Vista on my new machine with whatever the lastest version of Firefox is, and using the Windows Media Player option for the streams. It seems to work for me... have you tried the non-QuickTime player? I've never been a QuickTime user, so can't offer any words on why that isn't running.
