Last.fm problems

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I have a question about last.fm (didn't want to dedicate an entire thread to just that, but the other thread was cold and wouldn't show up on the forum's recent posts list): I noticed that after about a minute a track was played on the radio, it just pauses. I KNOW, I KNOW, it's a question that should be asked on the last.fm forum, but nobody responded in a while! Google also proved itself ineffective. Such are my excuses. So, the track just pauses. I once tried pause/play and it worked. Today, however, it didn't. 

What is going? How can I remedy this issue?

	I haven't used last.fm radio in ages but the only thing I can think of is a faulty internet stream or a fragmented file. Where are you listening from? If it's something like work or school, the amount of bandwidth you have available may be limited to the amount of data in one minute of a song. If you're just a home, I'm not so sure.

	Yes, at work, via Google Chrome and the plugin. That's why ever since then I just started listening to what I have on Windows Media Player and letting the plugin scrobble.
