Starting a few days ago, the WFMT Chicago main live streams (http://stream.wfmt.com/main and http://stream.wfmt.com/main-mp3) stopped working for me.

All other URL's in my library still play fine. And these WFMT streams play fine via WINAMP on the same PC.

I logged an attempt and the key failure seems to occur following an HTTP Send Request:
0795359: 16708: Reader: CWinINetReader::DownloadFromHTTPURL: Failed (header status code: 520)

The entire log for this playback is fairly voluminous but I've attached it for completeness.

Anyone else run into this problem with WFMT? Any solutions or workarounds?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks.  I can see the problem.  It's not returning a type nicely when we use our user agent, but it is returning nicely with other user agents.

We were using a user agent of NSPlayer so we looked like Windows Media Player.

I don't think that's right any longer, so I just switched us to the JRiver user agent.

That makes these URLs work.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for quick investigation and response.

I'm still running v25. How can I obtain a version with the modified User Agent?

I would have no problem upgrading to v26 right away if that is how the modification is packaged.

Thanks again!

It should be available on the forum in a few days.
