ClassicFM

[Black Hole]

ClassicFM (LCN 731) is at the time of writing not providing audio and my TV declares it a "data service". It was fine overnight.

Glitch? Or have they deserted DVB??

Phew! It's back.

But only 64kbps mono (mp2). Just about suitable for background listening.

My logger hasn't detected any changes (at all since 3 Jan), so the problem must be at your end.

Service 22848 TSID 20544 ONID 9018 Radio        "Classic FM"

it still had the ClassicFM slide up, the signal was still present... but no sound (which could have been loss of sound except the TV reported a data only service leading me to believe there was no audio stream). The situation resolved at 11.44am (which is when the TSR buffer kicked in again).

It was only ever mono. I don't what the bit rate has been in the past.

I made the comment because I was surprised by BH's lo-fi listening. (In a senior moment I did think it had been stereo, but I was wrong. There's a good chance the bit rate has always been 64kbps.)

Couldn't give a fig, it's good enough for the intended purpose. That doesn't stop me being annoyed about DAB+!
