If the stream resumes and that you have received a warning email, you'll receive another email confirming that the stream has restarted.
A second email is sent if the break lasts more than 30 minutes. You can refine the selection for your various streams (receive an alert for such radio, but not for another.)Īll interruptions are registered by the system and displayed in the events (in your administration console) if the daily automatic rebooting of streams is activated, we won't register any interruption within a 5 minute time frame after the hour that was defined.Įvery minute, a script checks for breaks and will only send an email and create an event when the interruption lasts for at least 5 minutes. In the managing rights table, you will find a column for email alerts
It is possible to set up the automatic sending of emails in order to warn you of interruptions in your radio stream(s) (short and/or long duration). You canpotentially run a longer buffering test to check for isolated instances ofsaturation ( more information). It is sometimes also worth asking your ISP to check the qualityof your line and measure the effective bandwidth. Nonetheless, for the convenience of you and yourlisteners, we recommend having a dedicated Internet connection used solelyfor your radio broadcast and to rent a second connection for all of yourother needs. Therefore, if your radio streams aresending audio and other transfers are also in progress to and from thecomputer in question or indeed other computers sharing the same line,measured throughput will be lower than your line's theoretical throughput.If you are unsure of anything, please send the result of this test, withmeasurements taken at various times of the day (and evening), letting usknow the technical specifications of your Internet connection and the numberof computers sharing the line.Ī standard ADSL connection issufficient in most cases. Our test tells you what throughput you need.It calculates the available throughput. The more you share the Internet connection used forstreaming with other computers, the more likely it is that your radio streamwill be disrupted. Sufficient throughput means having a sufficient margin of freebandwidth at all times. To streamradio, a good quality Internet connection is required along with sufficientthroughput. Please also note that these measurements may varyover time depending on network traffic and routing. If datais being sent over a large distance, this may lead to a loss in quality anda slower response time. Our servers are located in Geneva, Switzerland. Specifically, we measure the time taken tosend or receive a certain amount of data, along with the time taken toreceive a response. The connection test provided in your control panel allows you to measure the connectionbetween your server (measured from the server/computer on which streams areencoded) and our infrastructure.
