Icecast - Jul 2017 - Tunein on Vizio plays only 1 sec, works fine elsewhere...

Hi!

My icecast stream is at http://airprogressive.org:8000/stream Website is 
http://AirProgressive.org

This works on Tunein on most platforms, including Android and PC, like 
this: https://beta.tunein.com/radio/AirProgressiveorg-s141251/

But on Vizio "Smart" TV app, it only plays about 1 sec, then stops
with
no indicated error.

But icecast still believes the stream is connected until I RETURN to the 
previous screen on the VIZIO TV.

Here is a video of the failure on the Vizio TV. 
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7VY4zfV7BdVdDQ3T0VqSWo0TjA/view

I changed icecast parameter "burst" from 64K to 128K with no change in
the failure.

Vizio has "Radiotime Widget" version 0.44.0.

My stream runs at 32kbps and 22050 hz sample rate, joint stereo.

Anyone else come across this?

Is that TV trying to access the stream using TLS? If so make sure you
have at least OpenSSL version 1.0.2g installed (older versions have a
bug that causes similar behavior).

Hm, this more sounds like a bug in their application. Does it stay
connected for more than two queue sizes after it stopped? (queuesize /
bitrate)

Ok.

Little side notes:
      * You're running Icecast2 2.4.0 which is still ok, yet there have
        been some fixes (likely not related to your problem) in
        2.4.2/2.3.4.
      * You have set your <hostname> to an IP. It's called hostname
for
        a reason. Please change it to your hostname (wich seems to be
        "airprogressive.org" given your stream URL you gave above).
      * You set the stream URL to "http://69.73.185.67". Beside that
        this does not identify a resource at all (invalid URL) you
        likely want to set this to "http://AirProgressive.org/" (note
        the slash at the end) as that is the website for your stream.


Wish you a nice day,

with best regards,
