Ron:

I, too, have started getting media error 7 messages when listening to some
internet radio stations, and I'm not sure what media seven refers to.

If anyone knows, please provide this information.

One thing I am starting to feel is that the second-gen Stream, while having
some excellent new features, is not as stable or as consistent in
performance as the first-gen model.  I suppose this is typical with any kind
of a newly-upgraded product, but it does raise significant quality-control
issues in my mind as well.

Messages With New-Gen Victor Reader Stream

I encountered severe static on one of my recordings with my VR Stream, and
then, I re-recorded it, and the second time it came out just fine, and I
have not had that problem again. 

I am also running into two other problems that have me puzzled too. First,
for some reason, my VR Stream just shuts off on its own some times when I
press a button, and it doesn't seem to be associated with any particular
button. 

Second, I am getting a "media error 7" on some of my podcasts. Most
recently, I tried to download and listen to the latest episode of Eyes on
Success which features our good friend, Tom. However, when I try to listen
to it, my VR Stream is giving me a "media error 7" announcement, and now, I
cannot listen to any of the Eyes on Success podcasts because I am getting
the same media error 7 announcement on all of them. I even deleted all of
the Eyes on Success podcast episodes and unsubscribed from the Eyes on
Success podcast and then, re-subscribed to it all over again, and I am
getting the same media error 7 message. I have gotten that error message on
some other podcasts too, but it usually applies to only one episode of a
podcast, not to all of the episodes. 

Any suggestions how to resolve this one?
