Hello,

I have a new Essence MK2 with latest firmware. Everything works well. I control it with beomusic app. With the source TuneIn Radio I face a problem with one specific radio station "Superfly FM".

The essence tries to find or play the station for about 5 seconds and then shifts to the next station in my favourite list. I also tried to start the station from the sender list (not the favourite) - no succeess.

When I open the tuneIn App on the iphone or iPad the station plays without a problem and I can stream it to the essence. So it is not a network issue.

I tried to change the buffer from 5 to 10 and back to 3 seconds. No change in behaviour.

Any idea? The stupid thing is, that this is the favourite station of my wife and one of the reasons to buy the essence...

Thanks,

Heribert

Hi Michael,

* Yes, can you please do me the favour to try on your? 

* yes, it is stored in the favourites seen in beomusic app. I added it first on the computer and after having "unliked" it also again in Beomusic App

So, ich habe den Sender jetzt mehrere Stunden gehört. Er lief konstant durch. Einmal ist er mir weggerutscht und ich hatte den nächsten Sender.

Hast du eine feste IP Adresse der Essence zugeordnet? Ich denke es liegt an deiner Internetverbindung oder direkt am Sender. Ich habe ein ähnliches Problem mit meinem "Mallorca Inselradio". Oftmals kein Empfang oder kontnuierlicher Abbruch nach einigen Minuten. Da liegt es aber am Sender und die Lautstärke ist zu anderen Internetsendern total übersteuert (zu laut). Da war der Empfang über die Essence beser als über die BS5 (die ist noch sensibler).  Dann hilft es auch nicht den Zwischenpuffer zu erhöhen.

Hi Heribert,

I just tried it on my Essence mk2 and I can't play it on beomusic here in the UK either. Everything else works fine - apart from Superfly FM. It works when just played on the tunein app on my iPad though, strange!

Sorry couldn't help more, I don't know much about Internet radio, so can't offer a solution or answer why.

Thank you both for testing. I was playing a little with my network settings, but without success.

One question: My essence has a LAN cable plugged in and also connects via WLan (Wifi) with my network. Which connection is used for the stream? can I decide this?
