Was using 2.98.3 upgraded to 2.98.5 even though is still says 2.98.3???.

This I hope is not a problem. The problem is that even though Pandora used to work. Now when recording a song. It records the name but then show 1.4 to 1.8 Megs recorded and stops changing. The file is also not playable. When the next song comes up the name in Smart Station Sniffer come up, but again the file size jumps to 1.x megs and stops recording.

Hi Z,

I just tried and it worked ok.

It MAY be that you've installed something that's altering what kind of music file pandora is sending down. If the file extension is MP3, try renaming to MP4. Or get WinAmp and try with that.

Greg,
Thanks for the reply.
Changing the extension worked.
Recording Pandora in the past worked fine, but I had let my subscription lapse. I did not know that doing so would change the file format. Also the fact that SR knew the size of the song before the end of the song confused me.

SR is very sensitive while recording a MP4 file. If listening while recording, any mouse movement in the window causes the audio to sound "choppy", although the recorded stream seems fine.
Again, Thanks for all you hard work and support.
The paid membership to SR is the best money I've ever spent.

Recently SSR is saving Pandora files with no .xxx extension, just the file name like "KT Tunstall - Miniature Disasters" instead of "KT Tunstall - Miniature Disasters.mp3"
It is then removing the file from the Output Directory but keeps it referenced in the SR Music Library and says it is located in the Output Directory, but nothing is found.

Any thoughts??

This is still happening ocassionally, plus SSR is now constantly missing the title and using the Pandora_xxxxxx generic naming. Wonder if Pandora changed something???
