Radio 4 (and other BBC) has stopped working

[Yanntoe]

Help!

Radio 4 has stopped working on all my Squeezeboxes!

Tries to connect and then comes up with "500 Internal Server Error"

Any clues?

It's working fine for me via BBC iPlayer and Alien BBC.

I think the BBC radio URLs hosted by logitech are out of date. If you use the iplayer plugin then the listen live menu items should work.

Can someone send me the updated WMA URLs? I have no way to test them.

These are the URL's from my browser..

You may find the URLs on this page better for WMA and Real Streams.

This is a BBC maintained web site specifically aimed at receiving their streams without the BBC iPlayer.

I think Alex's URLs are for the BBC iPlayer.

Yesterday's Johnny Walker program won't work on iPlayer for some reason. It claims to be connecting but never does.

Elaine Paige, on the other hand, comes through loud and clear. Hardly a substitute though...

I sent Andy the stream details last week - hopefully he can update SN soon...

Ah just spotted this thread. I have another on the same topic over here...

I have

BBC R3 WMA 128

BBC R4 WMA 96
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/wm_asx/aod/radio4.asx

BBC R4 LW 64
mms://wmlive-acl.bbc.co.uk/wms/bbc_ami/radio4/radio4lw_bb_live_eq1_sl1#slim:noscan=1

Having returned from Cyprus I have been using the Alien/Real streams, but have just reset my BBC Radio 3 preset to the higher bitrate WMA as above. It is still working.

I have not tested the Radio 4 streams, and I cannot find the BBC page where I found my higher bit WMA streams.

The WMA streams listed higher up this thread seem to give the same results but with longer URLs.
