Favorite radio station suddenly won't play - Melbourne Australia

Robbo9 — Sat, 08 Apr 2023 03:53:36 GMT

Have been listening to Triple M FM Melbourne for a year with out issue. Suddenly today it plays a different station from what I'm asking for. After a little investigating, I find that radio stations that are linked to either iHeart and Tunein are being played, but nothing via the Listnr app. Has the Listnr app been dropped.

"Help" pages instruct to arrange your radio requirements via Media>Manage your system>Radio (button) But there is no Radio button (Only Music, Video, Podcast or Create Groups)

Local radio station

I can't get my Google to play any local radio stations, no matter how I ask it. I've tried every variation possible.

Mine has stopped playing BBC Radio Solent

Re: Local radio station

BigT2 — Mon, 20 Mar 2023 07:22:06 GMT

To be clear - The Google speakers used to play BBC Radio Solent, there was a period in the middle of 2021 when it stopped and denied all knowledge of the station and some, but not all others. There was a long exchange here between several people as it affected many in England. by 13 July 2021 it was restored without explanation by either Google or the BBC. Now around a week ago it has stopped again. Instead of outright denial I receive the message "I can't do that here, but can ask me to play it on one of your other devices" Of course I cannot regardless of what I try. I can still play BBC Radio 4 or other local radio stations like Radio Trent. The weirdest thing is the that the Speaker is set to give me the local news each morning. and yes it still does! Each morning I get the latest news from BBC Radio Solent!

Hello everyone,

Thanks for your assistance, @Cathal_S.

@Lynniew, a few questions: when did this issue start? What's the response that you're getting from your Google Home device? Have you tried some troubleshooting steps?

@BigT2, please try to create a routine with an action to play BBC Radio Solent and check if it works or not.

Keep me posted.

Cheers,
Lovely

This happened a few weeks ago & still haven't been able to get local radio. This happened a year ago or so but we were able to ask it to play it using a different format. But nothing works this time. I ask it & it replied"I donk know but I've found these options" then it displays a Google search.

I've done all the the troubleshooting & I still get the same.

Hi, there was a routine for a morning news broadcast and it worked fine, which made the problem even more mystifying. I raised the issue with BBC Sounds, and they replied after a few days " Google had released a fix for this issue, and we have tested it since and found it to be working. It should be working again for you as well but if not, please get back in touch by using the link below."

I can confirm the issue has been fixed and all is working OK

It still doesn't play local radio stations. It plays national stations but asking it to play local stations & it's still "I do t know but here is what I found"

MartinG1 — Tue, 04 Apr 2023 03:03:12 GMT

Same here. Called 3AW. 3AW are impossible to contact and you cannot get to talk to a person, you can only email them with problems!

3AW streaming stopped working earlier today (4/4/2023). Why?
