Can't connect to Radio stations

[jibstar]

I've just downloaded build 119, while I like the fact the shoutcast is inregrated in the player, I still can't get most of the radio stations to play, its just gets stuck on connecting and moves down to the next channel.

Is there any way I can get the stations to play again normally?

Did you try Prefs -> expire all listings now in the ML?

Sometimes Shoutcast fails to update to radio stations from websites that frequently change the playlist. In that case you're only bet is to visit the website of the radio station manually to get the playlist file.

Also you need a good enough internet connection. For 128bit quality you need a constant download rate of 12 KB/s.

I used to use the old QCD before and I never had any problems connecting to radio stations for years, its only in the last 10 days I haven't been able to connect with most of them at all.

I tried the "expire all listings now" button with QMP but its still the same.:bored:

Try b116. That's the last version that worked good for me.

Did you install a firewall programme in the last 10 days?

Nope.
