Is there any fix for Internet Radio Stations not working?

[Drewlinskii]

My radio stations have not been working for the last month, and I really want them back, so I don't have to keep on Alt+Tabbing to change music on my second monitor.

The problem: I'll play a Radio Station, let it load, and it'll load for about 30 seconds until it starts to load the next radio station, so it's a never ending cycle of loading.

I've looked for fixes on the forums and google and have not found a single solution.

So for anyone that's had this problem, and fixed it, how did you fix it?

Things I've Tried: Uninstalling the game, updating radio stations from the internet, removing the live_stream.sii file and uninstalling/reinstalling the game. Nothing has worked.

Edit: I also have the same problem on ETS2.

I just tested them and they work fine here

Might be a location specific issue or your internet speed.

just tested mine and it works fine too.

I'd try Iheart radio rl program if you'd like a prefered station.

I had the same issue and learned that it may have been a DNS problem. Might want to check into a public DNS supplement like Google DNS.

How exactly would this fix my issue?

Can you play any of the 181.fm stations through your browser?

Try going to http://www.181.fm/player/?station=181-eagle

Options in top right let you select html5 or flash based player.

Yes, any radio station works through my browser (chrome). It's just in game that my radio doesn't work. Like I said, I tried uninstalling the game, deleting the live_streams.sii file and re installed tha game and pretty much everything [simple] i could think of.

[Gazer75]

Do you have any mediaplayer like VLC that can play network streams?
If so then copy the adress of different streams inside the live_streams.sii in and try there.
If it is playing there then it should work. If not then you'll have to contact SCS.
But as you're the only one that have posted about this issue I think it might be something on your computer.

I had a radio station that was playing fine in google chrome but not playing in game. My fix was finding the radio station that wasn't working in other streaming websites and one website worked. ATS must of not liked the link for some reason.
