RA Servers down? Hi Again,
Another question that may be a server issue. We're a non-profit in NM and operate a Non-Commercial / Educational full power FM radio station. We use RA to program our schedule from wherever I might be, at home near the station or, currently, Los Angeles. We've been using RA for the last several months w/ good results - given its "development" status, ie not perfect but functional and promising. I hope it becomes "Team Viewer for the rest of us."
In the last couple of days, I've been experiencing absolutely glacial latency. When logged in to the station automation computer I would normally see the audio bar graph meters moving in something like "real time" and, yes, the seconds on the digital clock as well. We simulcast the FM content on a webstream which I can monitor in real time and there are no issues of bandwidth there. This is NOT monitoring that audio via RA but the single stream that we send to our distribution server which is in turn relayed to our audience anywhere on the web. Checking RA just now, however, the seconds freeze and only update every 3 or 4 seconds. So, obviously this is a matter of updating my remote screen when logged in to the station - NOT a local bandwidth issue that affects the webstream.
So my question is...
Is this extreme latency related to your server? Or can you suggest another cause, given my description?
Again we've been using this for several months and are accustomed to occasional and brief latency issues but this has been continuous and extreme for the last couple of days.
tnx!
