    Troubleshooting

    Occasionally some people will have trouble playing back these audio streams. If this is you, here are some things to check:

    1. Check that you are currently connected to the Internet.
    2. Check that you have one of the above players, or a software media player that will play back an mp3 stream, installed.
    3. Are you at work? There is a good chance that your work's security arrangements (firewalls etc.) are blocking the audio stream. You may have to consult your employer's IT personnel if you are unsure.

  • How do I download a podcast to play in an MP3 player?
    Select the podcast you wish to download. The following views are from Internet Explorer. Right click on "Download." Select "Save Target As."


    View full screen

    "Save" to your computer. When download is complete, select "Open." The MP3 file will open in your default player - iTunes or Window Media Player.

    The process is the same in Firefox, except when you right click on "Download," the option to select is "Save Link As."

  • Why can't I select a song from a radio channel to "play on demand?"
    Music copyright and licensing rules and regulations dictate how we provide music to the listener. At this time we cannot offer a "play on demand" feature on Streams Radio. The best we can offer the listener is various channels with a particular genre.

    More information on a Streams artist can be found by clicking on "About" on the "Now Playing" song. Many WELS artists have put forth great effort and talents to worship our Lord. We pray that you continue to enjoy Streams music.

  • I cannot view the videos on Streams.
