Streaming FAQ

Why does everything look different? This is a new audio/video player. It brings the live streams and archives into a central place. Search or browse for stuff you like and create playlists. Share stuff on Facebook. Explore.

Why do I get a big error/problem/message? Make sure you have the latest Adobe Flash Player. (Something like 97% of browsers already do.)

Can I listen to past shows? On-demand programs and performances are in the Media Player (or searchable on our Audio Archives page). You can hear the past 2 weeks of weekend shows, or a great list of studio performances or live concerts. They're in Flash Media format.

Can I listen on my phone? Yep! See the Mobile Streaming page.

Can I see what song is playing now? Most of the time, yes - we're still developing it. You can see it for The Alternate Side on every page, and we're bringing that technology to the other channels. Here's the list of current and future songs for WFUV On-Air and FUV All-Music. If you can't find it in there, look for the Playlists links under the Schedule menu. That gets more info, but there's often a delay.

Also in the meantime, there's a site that uses song-recognition technology to capture the playlists of many stations. They don't catch everything we play, but they get most. Our page on: yes.com.

How can I hear Fordham sports events online? Go to the Fordham Sports Streams Player.

How much does streaming cost us? We pay for the bandwidth used by all listeners collectively. Would it cost us more if you left it running all weekend? Yes. Our online listeners contribute the funds we use to pay for streaming by becoming WFUV Members. Are you a Member yet?

Why no full-length albums on the stream? It's a copyright issue. During the CD of the Week, we stream other WFUV music.

Why is the stream skipping or dropping? Most of the time it's not you OR us, it's a problem in the pipeline in between. Make sure your connection speed is fast enough - check your connection speed at speakeasy.net/speedtest/.
