    hi friends,
    for me "Airtime" is running on Linux Ubuntu server ver.11.10.
    Sometimes If I set playlist, Airtime to run that playlist (on right time), but "ON AIR" is not lighting.
    Check to "System - Stream settings" but message:
    Connected to the streaming server
    is a green, it seems that all right. But it is not. No sound is broadcasting, although program is running in Airtime.

    What may be wrong? What I have to check on server (which services, processes, ...)?

    Hi, Fred,

    You can execute:
    telnet localhost 1234
    then:
    queue.queue

    to see if there is anything in the queue when it's ON AIR.

    If there is something like:
    queue.queue
    0 1 2
    then it means your contents are playing now, if not, then we need check pypo.log to see what happens.
    Cloud Radio -> http://airtime.pro

    Hi Fred,

    What version of airtime are you using? We had a bug in 2.1 that will cause playout to be interrupted. If you are not on 2.1.1, please try that version.

    Thank you.

    hi Cliff,
    in "Terminal" for command:
    telnet localhost 1234
    [Enter]
    result is:
    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    Connected to localhost.
    and then I type:
    queue.queue
    [Enter]
    and result is nothing:

    END

    hi James,
    I have 2.0.2 version of Airtime.

    Some any idea?
    Which services/processes must be run?

    I tried restart RabbitMQ server too:

    me@server:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/rabbitmq-server restart
    [Enter]
    Restarting rabbitmq-server: SUCCESS
    rabbitmq-server

    it seems OK, but result is the same - "ON AIR" (in Airtime) is not red although radio program is running.

    Hi Fred,

    Are you able to listen to the actual stream when the "ON AIR" light is off?
    I know that there was a bug in 2.0.2 which could interrupt the streaming in some cases and we fixed this issue on the latest version of airtime.
    Is upgrading to 2.1.1 a possible option for you?

    Thank you.

    hi James,
    no, it's not able to listen actual stream when "ON AIR" light is off. No sound.
    If not exist any other solution I must upgrade to 2.1.1 version.

    PS: how is upgrading process? Is it a complicated?

    Hi Fred,

    Upgrade process is just same as installing new airtime. It will detect if there is previous version of airtime or not. If there is, it will perform upgrade. I highly recommend you to upgrade to 2.1.1 as it contains our fixes as well.

    Thank you.

    Hi James,
    I upgraded Airtime to (latest) version 2.1.2, today. But it is earthquake.
