Oops! No content

 

  • Oops! No content

    So, I just joined today and I added lots and lots of artists, and I listened to my library for a while.

    Then I decided to download a free download song.

    After that, my library player decided that it wouldn't play because there was 'Oops! No content'

    Help?

    If you find yourself getting this error message, please take the time to read the below reasons why.

    1. Due to radio licensing laws, we can't allow for our streams to play tracks from one artist more than once per a set time frame.

    2. Personal Tags may give this error, as such we ask that users ensure that their tag has at least 15 streamable items. This too, is due to radio licensing laws. We also ask that you make sure they're not all from the same artists, as this will conflict with point 1 and cause the error to crop up again.

    3. Global Tags may give this error when the set contains less than 15 streamable items. In the case of subscribers, they can listen to global tag stations that have at minimum of 5 entries.

    With the above in mind, the way to overcome this error message is to either wait it out, or to listen to something else.

    Thanks,

  • It's not just tags

    As I've written here, this problem occurs on absolutely all imaginable radio stations on Last.fm, not just tag stations.

    Every single artist I can think up says Oops no content

    For all of the following artists, I get a "no content" message:

    U2, Britney Spears, Simply Red, Colin Hay, Coldplay

    These are artists not tags and I only ever listen to Colin Hay out of all of these, so I don't think that they can possibly have run out of tracks. This is happening on the flash radio on the website, on the linux desktop client and in Banshee.

    Any ideas?

    Fixed it!

    I fixed it by signing up for a new account (danlucraft) on Last.Fm! Of course that means that I lost all my scrobble history, library and friends, but at least I can actually listen to music again.

    Also it turns out that you can have multiple Last.fm accounts with the same email address, so no agro there either.

Just add more artists/tracks, you don't have that many yet; or wait until your Library radio has enough content again, if you've run out of content this is just a couple of hours.

  • foreverautumn: I've been a very active member for nearly 3 years, have 3,766 artists in my library and should not have any problems hearing new songs from existing artists, yet I do. The songs Last.fm plays to me through the various radio channels are all the same, all the time, and suddenly the station runs out of songs to play (even though I know there's tens of thousands of songs it can play, but won't) and then stops playing with the "Ooops! No content" error message.

    This is a known problem for long time now unfortunately, but they are working on a solution yet as you can read here.
