BBC World Service "no program" message
Last modified: 2012-02-26 00:28:56 UTC
When listening to BBC world service through the BBC app, a message stating there is no current broadcast is played. When listening to the same stream using a URL, there is a broadcast currently being streamed. These URLS seem to relfect the opposite of the stream from the BBC app http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/meta/tx/nb/live/ennws.asx http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/meta/tx/nb/live/ennws.pls
Comment from bpa (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90954): This web page gives the various world service links http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/institutional/2009/10/091029_internetradiomobilelinks.shtml I think the BBC App should have the live World service link - WMA http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/meta/tx/nb/live/eneuk.asx MP3 http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/meta/tx/nb/live/eneuk.pls This is the web page which gives BBC WMA stream http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/help/playing_radio_progs/real_wma_streams The text in BBC App for Radio 7 should be changed to Radio 4 Extra but I think the URL didn't change http://bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r7.asx
The app uses http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/meta/tx/nb/live/www11.asx This URL gives an HTML 404 error.
