sky.fm and di.fm app failing to stream as Premium

**andyg** · 2010-10-05, 14:42

Can you describe how to reproduce this problem? What control interface are you using to view/play the streams?

**staalelor** · 2010-10-05, 14:47

Simple:
Using my now stand-alone SB Touch connected to a wireless LAN with regular internet access. Logs into mySB without problems. Earlier today I got to go to "My Apps" to choose from my installed Apps. Now it just says "Problem Connecting - Failed to parse"

No Apps accessible any longer.

OK, should be fixed now. If not give it a few minutes.

Great man.
I'm now able to connect to the Apps again.
The "Premium sky.fm stream" now gives a bit different error message:

"404 Not Found http://www.squeezenetwork.com/api/difm/opml/stream?*****"

Same as before but with a more valid hostname.

This could mean your DI.fm/Sky.fm account is invalid. Try re-entering it.

No problemo: Removed it first and then added it again on the SB Touch:

"Your SKY.fm account har been successfully added."

Same error message though. There might be a problem with the connection between mySB and my premium account on SKY.fm?

I'm able to play the premium everywhere but through the mySB Apps.

De nada...and you've definitely got the right guy on the job. Andy G rocks!!!!

When solved, if possible, it'd be interesting to know why mine worked and yours didn't.......

Aha, I see the problem.

DI/Sky let you configure the type of playlist you get when you click on a stream. The default is pls format and that's all we currently support. If you however configure it for m3u format their server returns a different playlist format. That's why it hasn't worked for you but does work for others. I'll have a fix out for this shortly.

Excellent point. I will try the different player options tonight when I get back home from work. I see that Sky.fm has this option, but I can't find it in the preferences for DI.fm.

We'll see.

Thanks again.

Both pls and m3u should work properly now.
