Radio Paradise Favorites "unsupported content type" ?

Answered
Neil Blanchard

On my Node 2i, when I try to play the RP Favorites stream, it has the error message:

Unsupported content type:
RadioParadise:/99.4/My%20Favorites

I am signed in, and the Favorites button is there - but it won't play anything.

Is this a known issue?

    I am also having the exact same error via both the Android app and Windows desktop app on my Node (N130). All apps and firmware are up to date.

    Today I tried listening to My Favorites - and it worked!

    Whatever the issue was - it seems to be fixed.

    The CD quality stream is working.

    However if I try to play the MQA version it only plays the CD version.

    Didnt they quit mqa to flac? Or was it Tidal?

    As far as I know Tidal has gone to flac but not Radio Paradise.

    The MQA piece may be a separate issue?

    But it seems MQA is barely holding on - Radio Paradise may be the last streaming service to offer it? It seems to me (a non-MQA user) that DACs for sale that support MQA, are far fewer? It may only be a matter of time, that RP may decide that it is not worth it?

    The MQA issue originally occurred at the same time with the same error message . This is a new issue where I think in fixing the problem someone has pointed the MQA quality link at the CD quality stream by mistake.

    As for MQA itself; I'd prefer it if Radio Paradise went the same way as Tidal and offered hi-res flac as the best sound quality option. MQA is dying a slow death and offers no advantages over hi-res flac and is less compatible.

    MQA is alive and kicking… a new streaming service due at some point this year from my favourite online music store HDTracks
