I press on the 'Listen' button, but the player does not appear |
|
|
In some browsers there is a pop up blocker to stop the opening of pages of unsolicited advertising. By clicking on 'Listen' button, this blocker can intervene and prevent the player window from opening; in which case a warning message appears to allow the opening of the window. The pop up can be active in some toolbars (eg Google's toolbar). |

The reception is difficult, because several outages occur |

Listening to Venice Classic Radio require the receipt of a continuous data stream (the so-called streaming) to 128 kbit per second. This poses no problem for an ordinary ADSL line, but it may be difficult for a connection via wireless router or through the UMTS network. In these latter cases, in fact, the speed of the connection depends, apart from its nominal capacity (ie the one stated by the provider), also on the intensity of the received signal. If the receiving device is very far from the router (or is in an area favored for the UMTS signal), the connection speed decreases significantly, and it is no longer able to guarantee the continuous reception of the stream, causing frequent interruptions in the audio signal. Often the problem can be resolved by changing the position of the wireless route, or connecting to the receiving device (if that possibility is foreseen) a high gain directional antenna pointed toward the same router.

The reception has been always good, but today there are frequent interruptions or cannot hear anything |
|
|
The streaming takes place from our server to all receivers spread around the world through Internet, which is ideally structured like the branches of a tree: at each branch is a node. If a node fails, the stream is interrupted, causing problems to the receiver. That's why sometimes the reception is difficult, although it normally works with regularity. We are able to control the operating of the broadcast server, but not the ones of individual nodes around the world. In any case, if you have reception problems, please report them to our

who will carry out appropriate checks. |

While using 'Venice Player', a short interruption of about one second occurs |
|
|
The interruption of the streaming that occurs every two hours for about one second, using the Venice Player, is our trick in order to clear the cache memory of the browser, and thus prevent slowdown or instability problems of the PC. This, therefore, is not an anomaly, but is part of the routine functions of the player. |
