Build 1474 will have improved handling of the URL, test again if playback performance still suffers.

Thanks, Lowlander. I'll switch it to WMP. It's kind of a flaky feed - there sometimes and not at others.

I do want to thank the MM developers. It's an awesome app.

That URL fails to play for me on 4.0.3.1473. WMP plays it just fine though.

One favorite is called the "Spirit of Jazz". Plays old tapes of defunct SFO jazz station KJAZ. I use:

What is the stream URL?

Average user of MM for ~ 2yrs. Original version seemed OK for a while, then internet radio streaming started to fragment, repeat. Often, repeat would keep playing even after I shut MM down -- had to reboot to stop. Just installed latest MM version (14feb12) -- no change. Seems to be a windows 7/MM problem, because when the same stream is plucked off router and played in parallel thru Logitech Media Server to wifi radio in garage, problems do no occur. Suggestions? (BTW, old MM de-install (to enable new MM install) did not work (although it said it did); had to delete old MM folder to install new MM.)

Thanks,
Tom Mitchell
