New Radio Player Update

Posted on Jul 28th 2010 11:45AM by Thomas Chau

An update was released last night to the AOL Radio web player that addresses some issues users have seen recently.

These issues include:

Static Flash Pop-Up Window - Some users might have seen a Flash Pop-Up about storage settings with an 'Allow' or 'Deny' button but clicking on either button would not do anything and a station couldn't be changed. We've updated the player so that this window is now clickable. If you see this pop-up message, click on 'Allow'. You will only have to do this once.
Music Does Not Resume After Pausing - Some users on Firefox or Google Chrome experienced issues when trying to resume music after pausing. The new update fixes this bug and users will be able to hear the rest of the song after pausing mid-way.

Stay tuned - we have some exciting updates coming to the AOL Radio web player and iPhone app. Please continue to visit the AOL Radio Blog or follow us on Facebook or Twitter.

1. Why do I keep losing my preset stations, and why can't I preset stations anymore?

4. Is there any way to keep the radio awake all the time. Do I have to buy something? What? It drives me nuts!

5. I would be only too glad to have the player go to sleep. While I actually don't like it sleeping either, at least it would be playing. I haven't been able to get it to play in 3 weeks now. The new player is not much better either. It comes and goes, mostly goes. All other streams are o.k. except AOL Radio, and the help I am paying for doesn't even get the problem!

6. I do not like the new player "upgrade". I especially do NOT like the cross-fading of songs. I have seen a number of other people who do not like this, and I hope that AOL staff will change it back to allowing each song to completely start and finish without overlapping other songs.
I love listening to AOL radio, but if this isn't fixed, I will have to look for another online radio outlet, because it's too annoying.
