Problem While Playing

[BravoLima]

I have had this come up frequently lately.  I'll be listening,  not on any one particular feed,  and it goes from "live" to "buffering" and when it does,  the voice kind of gets stuck..  aomost like a broken record...for as long as it takes to buffer - could be a couple seconds to 15 seconds.  I tried different mp3 players too.  What could be causing that?  Has anyone else had this?

This happens when the person feeding the original stream is having bandwidth issues or some other issue that delays their ability to keep the stream feeding in real time.

Everybody has these "problems."  I use two different players (from two different locations) and they both stop on a very regular basis.  Most of the time it is a buffering problem and I just gotta start it up again (because it doesn't startup on its own).

Sometimes my feeds don't even connect, sometimes they stop after a few minutes, and sometimes they literally go for hours.  It's a free feed that people donate to the system so it's already more than I can ask for.
