As far as I can tell things are running okay right now.  
But Amazon does occasionally get its signals crossed,  that usually doesn't last too long.


There's only a  couple of things you can try.
Basically just rebooting and reinstalling the skill.


"Alexa disable Radio Paradise"
Unplug than plug the device back in.
"Alexa enable Radio Paradise"

Odd, i had been playing what i thought was a flac stream via itunes app last night?  

Suddenly, can not play through Alexa.  Hmmmm.  Not using Flac.  Works on PC, but am unable to continue play through Alexa.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Best Wishes from Charleston, SC

Looks like it will be down for a while. Sorry about that.

Ah. Right you are. I'm traveling today & have to jump through a couple of hoops to get into the server. I'll have it back up as soon as I can. 

Like I said - very much a beta situation. 

It seems flac stream is not working - 404:
http://audio-3.radioparadise.c...
From foobar2000:

The following error(s) occurred during loading of the location(s):
File Not Found (404)

Yesterday afternoon (PDT), the FLAC stream was stuttering so I switched back to the ACC/LC stream which worked flawlessly.   The FLAC stream  http://audio-3.radioparadise.c...      seems to work just fine this morning.  


EDIT:  Spoke too soon.  the flac stream is speeding up and stuttering.  Windows 10 v. 1809 , foobar2000 v1.3.1., ISP 120 Mbps download speed limit (i.e., plenty of bandwidth).  Now it is well ahead of the AAC-320 stream. 

At this moment it seems to have stabilized while playing Greg Brown - No Place Away at ~9:40 AM PDT.  

Curious.  I opened up another RP tab in the Opera browser, clicked on Listener Forum and the stream started once again to speed up and stutter.  Could be something on my end.  

flac link is working great on my old mac, that couldn't handle the site flac stream.  Thanks. 

Seems like the FLAC stream gets ahead of the AAC/LC stream.  

Am now listening to Porcupine Tree's Sentimental for the second time.   Which is not all bad.  :-)

I've reset the stream twice this morning. VLC handles that with just a short glitch, but perhaps Clementine needs a bit more encouragement.

That's not something that will be happening once the FLAC stream is officially launched.

Apparently, Sonos does not support FLAC streaming at this point. Actually, I suspect that it's TuneIn that's the problem. Custom station URLs are played via TuneIn, not directly by the Sonos player.

I have contacted Sonos at least a half-dozen times about partnering with us to add RP as one of the available music services. That would bypass the TuneIn issue, and would let us add our alternate channels and the skip function also. Frustratingly, they've never even bothered to respond. 

Feel free to pass the above quote along to Sonos tech support. You won't be the first, but maybe someday they'll be willing to work with us.

Bill ... FYI. The flac stream crashed here (UK) at around 15.52 BST. I'm using Clementine player on Ubuntu 18.10.
Hit play again and all's good in the world!

What Sonos model are you using?

Good Morning
Tried on Sonus and not playing. Will this eventually work?
Working on VLC on PC. Sounds very good.

When it is down, it is down but otherwise it seems to work quite well and is very stable.  Been playing continuously with no drop outs for the last couple of hours (Win10, foobar2000).
