Official Internet Audio Complaint Thread

Today seemed to be even worse than usual. For whatever reason, I couldn't even get the stream to try and open up; instead, I was taken to the WMBD site. I even tried pasting the audio link directly into real player, to no avail. The WMBD site opened up within the real player window. I am almost sure I did what I normally do, and I have never been directed to WMBD's site to get the audio. Am I missing something, or did anyone else notice this?

Does anyone know if there's any way to contact Dave Snell too?

Dave reads this board....

I would suggest an email to Wessler or Reynolds. A blub or article in the paper might open some eyes.

Also contact BU/Parker. In BU's push to strengthen Alumni relationships and pull in $$$$ I'm sure they wouldn't be happy alums are upset.

Good idea, Dogs. I'll try Dave Reynolds and Parker. Hopefully something can be done. I'm assuming folks other than myself have e-mailed or contacted WMBD about this. It's disconcerting we haven't had an answer yet.

I held off on e-mailing Dave Reynolds. I did e-mail Bobby Parker though. Here's his reply:

"My apologies on the streaming issues. We have been directing listeners directly to the WMBD server and apparently their server has been overwhelmed, causing the problems. We are going to try and receive their stream and re-distribute it through our provider's server Wednesday with hopes that will alleviate the problem. WMBD also is burning a CD of the last few games so that we can upload the entire audio for the archives.

Thank you for your loyalty to the Braves and your patience as we try to deliver a good product to our growing population of listeners."

50 minutes before the game and the audio feed is perfect. The true test, I suppose, will come in the next hour or so.
Does anyone know if they made any changes?

I suppose if I can post to complain, I can also post to compliment. The Braves have never sounded better here in Texas. Thanks to whoever is responsible!

[ser_solace]

Yeah, whoever did it (WMBD or Bradley), thank you so much for fixing the radio feed!

Video

Yes, but the WEEK video feed is absolute c rap!

So small you can barely make it out and when you blow it up in size it's blurry. What's up with that?

[Chico]

Dave and Joe came through great here in Mesa. Thanks.

The delay on the TV feed was only about one second compared to the audio over WMBD.
That made it great to watch WEEK and listen to WMBD radio.
I'm just glad we didn't have to listen to Mitch "Egyptian Dog" Holthus.
