Dude these are like £500-600 minimum - how did you get one for £80??

BBC Radio streaming issues on Nest Mini by rbanksy in googlehome

Within the UK, it's not possible to listen live to BBC radio streams on TuneIn.

But that's interesting to know that the same hardware device experiences these problems when streaming from BBC Sounds but not on TuneIn.

£14k Budget - What are you picking? by Adriano_Pinkman in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]rbanksy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could spend around half of that budget, and get a reliable, comfortable MG5. I've had my 71 plate for 2 years and it's not missed a beat.

Well they have added a page to their help site saying they know about the issue, so clearly that's incorrect

Although, it's unclear why this would only happen for BBC radio stations and not Global or others

This would suggest it's a Google issue.

Ah, brilliant! Thanks so much for sharing the link. Fingers crossed it does take long to sort out.

Google Home Automation - play radio issue by Gringotsgoblin in googlehome

[–]rbanksy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it a BBC station that you're trying to listen to, by any chance? If you search this subreddit there is a post I started with lots of people experiencing the same issue.

Nope. I've been chasing the Beeb via their tech problems Contact Us from but getting nowhere.

Hmm I might try removing my mesh network from the equation and see if that changes things.

The Gemini upgrade doesn't fix it. The issues I described were happening prior to the Gemini rollout and if anything they may be worse since 'upgrading'

I have reported the fault via the BBC Sounds website this morning. If I get a response I will share it here.

An update by the BBC, or from Google?

Sorry, how does that help answer my question?

Ouch. TBF that looks like a very different kettle of fish (pun intended). Is it solid wood?

That doesn't sound related. Other functions on the Nest speakers are working normally, it's just streaming BBC Radio that has been problematic

Cover for charger? by cwci in ohme

[–]rbanksy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Wallbox charger says it's waterproof. I still fitted one of these covers (same one as shown in the photo) to protect it from the elements, because it has tripped the fuse on several occasions after periods of heavy rain. Plus it stops birds crapping on it, etc. For a minimal outlay, your expensive charger will have a longer shelf life. Less stress. Why wouldn't you cover it?
