Hello, we are using Audio Logger to record our internet and station streams. We have recently changed streaming providers and with that our stream formats have changed. We have a .m3u8 format as well as a .mp3 redirect stream. In the past we were using an .m3u stream to a static server. With our new arrangement we have redundant servers so that if one goes down the player should witch to the next active one. That is the purpose of the .mp3 redirect link.
Is there any way for Audio Logger to recognize the redirect link? When I try to start logging that link Audio Logger gives me a “cant open the file (Bass error 2)” fault and does not show any audio activity. Can anyone shed any light on why this may not be working or what we might be able to try to fix it?
The m3u8 file does not work at all, I think it’s because it’s “nested” and contains links to other m3u8 files instead of the actual stream. BASS (the audio engine we use) does not seem to support that.
The redirect stream works fine for me, however. No errors or so, it just connects and starts recording. Maybe just a temporary problem?
To further debug the issue, can you please download the BASS 2.4 package from http://www.un4seen.com/bass.html and unzip it. There’s a file named “bass.dll” in the main folder, and also a file named “netradio.exe” in the “c\bin” folder (that’s folder “c”, then subfolder “bin”).
Copy these two files into the same folder, then run netradio.exe and paste your MP3 redirect URL, then click “open”. Does this work?
