Hi!
I have problems playing my favorite music station's streams.
If I try opening the URLs published on their page from LMS, this is what regularly happens:
- LMS tries opening the stream
- after 35 seconds, it gives up and stops
However, very rarely, it works(!). I could not determine the reason, nor why it sometimes succeeds. Success rates seem to be a little higher with mp3, while the opus stream virtually never plays (but there were cases when it did )
The first thing I noticed was that these URLs are redirects, but things are no different trying to open the redirection target directly. Then Michael pointed out that the web server is misconfigured it reports the wrong MIME type at least for the opus stream (ogg). But I don't think this can be the reason, as playback succeeds from time to time?
Any idea what is going wrong with these streams?
