For 2 SomaFM streams: TuneIn URL works, Favourites doesn't

**tigersim** · 2008-06-01, 10:45

Hi All,

Having some weirdness setting up Favourites for SomaFM streams. These 5 are fine:

o Groove Salad (http://scfire-chi-aa04.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1018)
o Lush (http://64.72.118.108:8800)
o Drone Zone (http://scfire-chi-aa01.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1032)
o Tag's Trip (http://205.188.215.230:8012)
o Downtempo Deep-house (http://207.200.96.232:8006)

But these two only work in TuneIn URL. Adding them as Favourites gives an error "There was an error loading the remote feed for : (Invalid XML feed )":

o SpaceStationSoma (http://64.124.106.230/SpaceStationSoma)
o cliqhop (http://207.200.96.231:8014)

Would be nice to sort it out. Is it just a problem with the feed, or something to do with SC's parsing?

My setup:

They're great stations! I was even moved to set up a monthly donation :O

I'm now running SC7.0.1 and the "Favourites" problem seems to be fixed now. For anyone else who wants to have a go, I've settled on these feeds, rather than using the playlists:

SpaceStationSoma: http://steady.somafm.com:8000
Groove Salad: http://steady.somafm.com:8032
Beat Blender: http://steady.somafm.com:8388
Sonic Universe: http://steady.somafm.com:8600
Lush: http://steady.somafm.com:8800
