web streaming broken AGAIN it seems :D

Come on guys, this would be really useful, especially on the day loads of people are leaving for the site, so we can hear how things are filling up, get in the mood etc.

Please get a more reliable streaming host next year :D. If something's worth doing it's worth doing properly, no?

Not here.

The whole www.qmsstreaming.com address doesn't even resolve any more, I take it they are messing around with their DNS - what a day to choose to do it, hope you're not paying them any money, whoever they are.

Thanks for your efforts, sorry we can't listen.

Yeah but www.qmsstreaming.com failing to resolve to an IP address should have nothing to do with your being in a field, that part (DNS) would always be done in a nice cosy data centre.

Anyway will be down there soon so will stop moaning and will tune to FM. Keep us posted on the car park situation! Cheers

The stream isn't working because the qmsstreaming.com domain wasn't renewed by whoever was meant to renew it, so it's now suspended (as you can see in the whois) and the domain removed from the .com DNS servers. If the qmsstreaming.com address is still working for some people it's because they are still using cached DNS records fetched before the domain was suspended today. I'm using this address instead which bypasses the DNS problems and works for me:

mms://83.138.56.237/glastonbury

Are the Worthy FM technical peeps aware of this problem? Also they seem to have halved the bitrate of the stream from 128Kb/sec to 64Kb/sec - maybe this is so they can serve more streams?

I'm Amazed that WorthyFM actually manage to get any stream out of a portacabin that's in the middle of a field.

The quality of lasts nights stream was fantastic... Daddy Teacha certainly gave me my Glastonbury Fix.. Reminded me of the usual pre Glastonbury chill out spent in my camper before the mayhem starts..

Anyway, can't be there this year so keep up the great work Roy. Next year maybe I'll poke my head into WorthyFM and see how that length of damp string actually connects you to the world :D

      Latitude 2026

      By Riddler7 · Posted

      Been going for 10 years. Wasn't massively keen on the lineup beforehand - although as usual after some research I did start to really look forward to it. We had a brilliant time, felt more like old school Latitude, lovely vibe and we met some nice people. We saw loads but highlights for me -   Lime Garden Florence Road Jalen Ngonda David Byrne - Not a fan of him or TH really but we went out of interest and it was one of those festival shows that you'll never forget. The staging was off the scale. Eleni Drake - Up on BBC Introducing, what a haven that stage is.  Westside Cowboy Getdown Services - Probably highlight of the weekend for me. Absolutely brilliant and have booked tix for them in Bristol next year. Everything Everything - They're my favourite band so I loved it when they were added. A great start to Sunday and met loads of their fans up near the front. Alex James Britpop - We enjoyed it and Gary Stringer FFS! David O'Doherty - Saw him twice, brilliant as usual. Self Esteem - Adore Rebecca and the show was as live affirming as always.   Overall, it was such a brilliant weekend. Beforehand we said that we might give it a miss next year but I'm pretty sure that we'll be sucked right back in!

      Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.
