Audio Drop Outs
Thursday, January 26, 2012 at 4:50PM At the present time you might find our the audio on our stream is dropping out at times. This is a result of the feed we're receiving at the moment.
We have been working on it throughout the day but there isn't much we can do as this is just the internet stream supplied to us.

The audio dropouts should be now fixed. We're sorry for the issue we were having with the stream while triple J's Hottest 100 was being played. The issues were because of the way the ABC has set up their radio streams and the fact that it was in high demand due to the countdown. the ABC has their streams set to stop after one hour of listening. SO this meant that I had to reset it everytimeit stopped.
We did have a big dropout near the end of the countdown due to very high demand for their stream. We lost connection to their radio stream completely and wasn't able to get it back. At the same time we still have the issues at our local exchange which added to the problems as we dropped out a couple of times as well.
You can listen to the countdown again by heading over to the Hottest 100 website.
