During the past two weeks, we’ve been working on updating several systems outside of the station itself, pinpointing the cause for Safari and iOS playback issues, and working through technical challenges. It’s been a lot, read on for more details.
Over the past 4 years, operational costs have ballooned, and we knew it was going to be a pain to migrate our web-based systems to a new machine, but that’s what we’ve been working through. Here’s some of what we’ve accomplished so far:
Here’s what we’re still working on:
On the Safari and iOS front, we’re experimenting with a new endpoint that uses HLS, a streaming protocol developed by Apple, so it should just be a drop-in fix for folks who haven’t been able to tune in on iPhones. We’re still putting together the endpoint for this, and we’ll make it available in the next PWA update.
Finally, there are some smaller loose ends to clean up. Through the migration process, it’s become very clear that the website also functions as the auth server for all connections. We’d like to look into architecting the existing system so that connections can still be made regardless of web server status (with the sole exception of Indigo which will still require active auth).
That’s all for this week (x2). Thanks for sticking through this process, we hope it’s worth the trouble for all the listeners and artists out there. We’ll be back soon with more, so thanks for listening!
