(AAC+) What players are compatible with aacPlus? I don't hear anything when I connect to your aacPlus stream. What happened? Why am I redirected to LoudCity.com to listen to your station? When I attempt to listen using Winamp I see the message "[ICY 400 Server Full]" Why does it not work sometimes? Internet Radio can be tricky - it can breakdown at the station hosting it, the Internet or on your PC. It's tough to say where. Please keep in mind sometimes reception can be tricky. Internet congestion, server overloading or server problems can make a signal temporarily unavailable - this is beyond Super Country Radio's control. If problems persist, please let us know. Will you play my band's music? Super Country Radio supports unsigned and independent traditional country artists, as well as artists signed to small, medium, and large labels, and we want to help great music get heard! All that we ask is that along with your music cd, you send a letter with your bio (type of music, where you're from, etc.) and giving Super Country Radio non-exclusive rights to play your music. Please make sure that the track list is included. If you send a disc with the songs already encoded in MP3 format, make sure that the MP3's are done at a 320kbps bitrate and that each song is correctly tagged with artist, album name, song title and copyright year. Broadcast quality is considered 320 kbps - please do not submit anything less than this as it will not get played. 128 kbps may be O.K. for other stations and Ipods, but not here! If you did not write the songs, please get permission from the songwriter's and have them sign the letter too. CDs can be sent to: Super Country Radio 3522 Rocky Ridge Road Oxford, Alabama 36203 *Note: Submission of CDs (or any music material) does not guarantee that your material will be aired, however you give Super Country Radio the non-exclusive right to air any material that you send. (Back to Top) What is aacPlus? (AAC+) A new development in audio streaming, aacPlus is an Internet audio format that provides near CD-quality using very little bandwidth. aacPlus is the combination of MPEG AAC and Coding Technologies' SBR (Spectral Band Replication) technology. This combination increases the efficiency of MPEG AAC resulting in superior fidelity over MP3, Windows Media, and Real Audio at equivalent low bitrates. As the most efficient audio codec worldwide, aacPlus enables Internet radio to be competitive with terrestrial digital and satellite radio. (Back to Top) What players are compatible with aacPlus? Right now, there are three that I know of. Windows: Winamp, VLC Media Player, and Foobar2000 Mac OS X or Linux: VLC Media Player All three players are free! There is also a free aacPlus plugin for Windows Media Player now available! Download it here. (Back to Top) I don't hear anything when I connect to your aacPlus stream. What happened? If you're listening with Winamp you must disable or uninstall the mp3Pro plugin if installed. The two codecs apparently don't like each other.
