Live365

Okay, this is not remotely the feature I'm dying to have work, but for giggles I tried the Live365 feeds today and they SUCK. I am on a gigabit network with something like 6MB down and the feeds can't work without breaking up.

Do these work for anyone?

I also noticed today the Tivo just seemed sluggish.

Yeah, I am pretty dissapointed by the Live365. I have a Roku Soundbridge and it handles Internet Radio so much better. With the Roku I never have any stations break up, furthermore, I can configure the Roku to tune to whatever stations I want! I haven't figured out how to do that with the TiVo yet. Hopefully they include that feature in a software update.

I have been using Live365 for 6 months now and have no issues with breaking up. It may be that since I am a VIP (paid) member I only listen to the higher bandwith stations.

If you go onto the Live365 web site you can pick from every channel they offer (instead of the few pre-programed for the TIVO). Just select your favorites as presets on the website and they will show up on the Tivo when you log on under "my presets".

On the sluggish note, on my Series 2 it was VERY sluggish, I have not used it much on the series 3 yet but it seem a lot better so far.

I've tried the Live365 on my Series3 also. I have a 10Mbs connection, but the Tivo hasn't played any Live365 streams yet without stuttering every 10 seconds or so. Unusable so far.
