| 379868 | 2005-08-09 22:45:00 | Whenever I try to listen to FM radio stations around the world using the internet, the signal is in and out with long periods of buffering in between. I thought this was because I was on dial up, but when I tried on my daughters computer, which was on broadband, the same thing happened. So how do you get a continuous radio signal on the internet. My machine has a 2.0G processor and 512M RAM, ditto my daughter's computer but with broadband. I was going on to broadband particularly to listen to the different radio stations. It does not happen if you chose the AM stations Regards Martin |

It's best to lower the amount that you buffer for a more uninterrupted stream because there can be a delay between when the segment from the current buffer finishes playing and time untill the next buffer is ready. Short and simple: small buffer = quicker load time = steady listening |
