GKIye Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Update ... about the TuneIn.pal (can be found also at http://inside.radiotime.com/developers/api/air ) I just noticed that my project is already added to their stations directory ... and that way I have a stationID (s......) I wrote their services to send Me the other details (partnerID and Key) I guess there gonna be fellow BW members who are also into that directory without the knowledge that they are submitted Update 2 I received already the next day my partnerID and Key so thumbs up for the crew of radiotime.com Visit and listen @ BW !

djgary72 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Improve it as little as they want SAM is still over priced when you consider theres Better alternatives out there and some of them free! Not much has changed and i said as much B4 this was released Seen the new Version and all it is a few Skin tweaks! Doubt any Major changes will even come with SAM5.

andhow Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I think it is pretty sweet. Looks like they have done a revamp of the whole GUI and rebranded with a new logo. The new GUI improvements actually makes running a LIVE show from SAM so much easier. I really like the design and overall changes to the app. Looks great and has a more professional 'feel' to it. The Triton Media Group that now owns a Spacial Audio has spent some serious time and money on development of the app along with the website and the forums! Just recent resolved a CPU issue that I had been experiencing for some time, thanks to the SAM Support forums (http://support.spacialnet.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=33996) and now I LOVE SAM Broadcaster! I have not had one problem that I was not able to get support for through their forums or these. Good job! Reverend Aquaman | Station Manager | andHow.FM Where it's *ALL* about the music!

djgary72 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Im entitled to an opinion tho Right???? Ive seen SAM go from 2.7.9 to Present 4.9.0 with Very little improvement . I gave it lots n lots of chances and finally gave up on it after it screwed my new year party up when i had at least 15 listeners most id ever had. now ive given up on Internet radio for the time being ill be sticking with RadioDJ when i do relaunch! Spacial took far too long to get SAM functioning right even 4.9.0 is Reported to have CPU issues .... My Blog https://djgarybaldy.blogspot.com User of RadioDJ FREE radio playout software since 2010.

andhow Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Baldy, as much as you bash SAM you probably don't need to be viewing this section. You hate SAM. We get it. I think "HATER" is the term that comes to mind. hater - hāt'ə® -One who expresses unfounded or inappropriate hatred or dislike, particularly if motivated by envy.

EricVdM Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Let's get back on topic... a point release has been issued by Spacial for bug fixes: I've been using SAM for a few years now and I like it, the new improvements show that they are back on track, I like the new interface. For me SAM 4.9 is :thumbup: I have a small problem with coding the "Schedule event" with playing from a directory in Lemming Rules (random logic) but when I change it to normal Random it works fine. I will ask the SAM forum if they know a solution and will post it in this thread. Everything else works just great for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andhow Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Let's get back on topic... a point release has been issued by Spacial for bug fixes: Not finding the SAM 4.9.1 download on the Spacial.net site.

cheekycroak Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 @EricVdm do you think i should open up a separate topic and post it there instead of continuing the 4.9.1 update? sorry new to posting stuff in BW forums!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekycroak Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 also @ EricVdm I have the same issue reported in SAM forums about the double playing by player decks A&B So far it has been 7 times today. The only solution to this was to disable all the pal scripts and so far so good Since I saw your post in Sam forum, thought this may help you but I am only a kiddie around the block with this solution. Appreciate any solutions !! I am aware they are introducing 4.9.2 as posted above but user who tested the beta version 4.9.2 has already reported the same issue. Below is an extract from SAM forum "urrghh, i Tried SAM 4.9.2 (B2) with AUTODJ ... and now, the same problem, both decks are playin´ .... SAM with MYSQL ..."

EricVdM Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Cheekycroak I think you don't have to make another topic because it's still about SAM but it would be easier to others who just dropped in on this topic for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricVdM Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I've been visiting the forum of SAM about this topic and notice that this is a beta version and not the final update so they still can change things. I also reported this bug and never get an replay but so I can see they tried to fix it, I think they get thousands of bug reports and can't answer them all but still try to fix it, best thing to do is wait thil the final version is out and see how that will work on your system.
