Who Stole The Cookie From The Cookie Jar (Stolen Records)

Image
2 weeks before Christmas 1990 my house was broken into and Some LOW LIVES Stole my record collection. It was obviously well planned by the perpetrators of the crime because they knew exactly what they were after when they kicked in the back door They never touched my Brothers PUNK collection which was more valuable. I THINK I KNOW WHO BROKE INTO MY HOUSE BUT I CANNOT PROVE IT They had to have the transport to get away with record boxes so that narrows the suspect list somewhat I think the people who stole my records did it out of SPITE to try and DERAIL my DJ career I suspect it was 2 DJ's who had a GRUDGE against me, Why they harboured such feelings I do not know My records were later found on the record stall on the local market.

Forget Oracle MySQL Server (Its Buggy)

Seen more and more users who've recently had issues working RadioDJ alongside Oracle MySQL (8) server. I personally think Oracle MySQL lost their way a LONG time ago. I Wrote A While Back about this very issue it seems MySQL8 still doesn't work properly. A soon as people switched to MariaDB their issues went away (Strange That) Marius carried out out some tests a while back and its quite clear that MySQL 8 takes longer to process queries compared to MariaDB. Query Duration MySQL8: 1.7712764 seconds Query Duration MariaDB: 0.0081946 seconds As you can see the difference is Huge on MySQL8 it takes 2 seconds to run a Query I've been a MariaDB user since 2014 and its RARE I have to do any maintence on my SQL databases. IF You have been having issues with MySQL download and install MariaDB Instead! How to Install MariaDB Please Note: Some versions of MariaDB have issues with RadioDJ due to a Database update

I can think of a few reasons WHY you might want to choose an alternative to SAM Broadcaster Pro or Studio 1) Lousy Customer Support: When SAM Broadcaster goes wrong (and it will) don't expect to get much help from Spacial Audio: Even the forums and social media accounts were staffed by people who didnt really care about the software. People have even taken to Social media to vent their frustrations at not getting much in the way of support. @Spacial Audio are the worst software company I have EVER come across I really feel cheated because I never expected @Spacial Audio to be so Deceptive I don't have to make Spacial Audio look Incompetent they manage to do that all by themselves Spacial Audio's parent company must be so Proud of the way they operate? IMHO: Triton Digital need to put Spacial Audio out of business. Update March 2023: Spacial Audio have made the Support forums a READ ONLY resource. Limiting your opti
