Just a small update...

Posted by Maisy on 7th January 2018

Howdy, PVFM Pones!

It's been a while since anyone posted anything here, but if you're loitering in our Discord, you'll probably be up to date with most of the goings-on around here anyway.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know that we have just pushed out some small updates to the website - in particular, with the station player. We have updated the playback script with a much newer version that should have several bug-fixes and other improvements to usability. We've also taken out the tracker bar, as it doesn't do you any good if you are listening to a radio station (such as ourselves).

We've also been investigating issues using OGG Vorbis, specifically on Firefox. It seems the update to Firefox "Quantum" may have made OGG playback unstable, but our tests with the latest Firefox 59 "Nighty" build suggests that these problems have been fixed in the upcoming version.

Do remember that we offer PVFM in several different formats - for ease of use and maximum compatability, we default to the standard-qualty MP3 stream, but we also have higher quality and mobile-optimised streams if you would prefer them.

We've got more improvements in store for you in the future, so as always, do stay tuned!
