I suspect that it may be voice tracked and the files with the music and his speech inserts are not being picked up by the system so it's playing what it has got in the order that they would have been inserted.
We all have opinions. Mine is mine, yours is yours. Don't tell me yours is mine. I think that I was wrong once, but then again, maybe I was wrong!!
No, not VT'd it's a live show. Bondy was there and streaming, but there were switching problems @ Frinton. The system tries to connect to a DJ's Primary feed, if that fails, plays a jingle and tried their backup feed, then jingle and repeat. Hence the looping jingles when things go wrong. The second outage (silence) was due to a problem in Bondy's studio. Just unfortunate the two problems occurred one after the other. All back and live now.

Have had to re-tune to Gary Ziepe on Caroline Flashback and 'The Mellow Show'. Currently its Dusty and 'All Cried Out'. Haven't heard that one for years!!!
Quote: BigJohn wrote in post #7Has the same thing just happened to Gary Jackson show? Its a deafening silence on Big L International since 10pm? No jingles even-just NOTHING!!
I think Gary's 10pm show is recorded and played out directly from Frinton, so it would have been a different problem. Not sure what happened. Could be a number of reasons.

I should imagine that it is a timed event and so the computer starts the event automatically at the set time. (usually) Though I know that with the system I have it is easy to inadvertantly disable events, so that jingles etc don't go out at the time they are supposed to. Maybe it's the same with the Frinton system.

When things are working normally, it's all automated. Gary just has to transfer his show onto the server by the correct time (which he did). Trouble is, in any complex system, there's lots that can go wrong to trip up smooth operation.

No idea is the only honest answer I can give you. I'm just a presenter and have no control over the output other than that of my own shows, suggest you drop Gary an email or post on FoBL. Sorry I can't give you a more positive answer. Gary was aware of the problems last night, but again, beyond his control.
