Just as I'd noticed that the cartridge on the animated deck actually gets closer to the centre, which is A+

i think it just went down again.
Well, at least it had 2-hour windows now instead of 1-hour windows.

yeah was wondering if it was my connection

Things we've figured out (for first-timers)
* Your upload isn't working if the metadata doesn't arrange itself in the title/artist/album order based on the id3 tag in your mp3. Also, you should see a gray band appear on the record that will approximate the song's running time. If neither of these things happen, delete and try your upload again.
* Sometimes the system will hang on an upload. If it doesn't finish within a reasonable amount of time, delete it and try again.
* It's not cool to delete other people's tracks unless it's by a majority rule. Please, if possible, try to keep the songs a reasonable length. Anything over the 6-7 minute range is pushing it.
* Don't be afraid to be uncool. We want to hear it all.

^ Thanks for posting those helpful tips. I didn't know what I was doing wrong the other night.

Any idea whether particular tracks are more likely to crash the thing?
― Dance the Bot! (seandalai), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 01:10 (thirteen years ago) link
I don't think that's the case. I just think the guy's server keeps getting overloaded.

thread bookmarked. i'm up for this whenever anyone is interested in spinning some tracks.

i think the website crashed

It's a regular occurrence, sadly.

It's really great for the one or two hour shifts in which it works, but then it goes down for 20 or 30 (or 60) minutes before it comes up again.
― Dr. (Johnny Fever), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 01:20 (thirteen years ago) link
there's another site that does exactly the same thing
mixapp.com
less attractive UI, but it's never crashed on me

Do you have to have your music catalogued in a library using iTunes to use that one? Because I certainly don't.
― Dr. (Johnny Fever), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 01:23 (thirteen years ago) link
iirc you can just upload regular old mp3s
― just woke up (lukas), Wednesday, 19 January 2011 01:25 (thirteen years ago) link
i would kick a room off on mixapp but i don't have any mp3s at work

It lacks some of the rugged charm of Listening Room; on the other hand, it works.

This works really great so far...it isn't buggy at all, but maybe slightly less charming. That it works is really its most important feature though.
