Did they play the whole of Black Box or cut it into the delayed ad break?
More shoddy broadcasting by the Heart team! Oh dear indeed! heart station. I'm sure we all hear it, but likes of me and others understand why it's happening, but l guess not even the best tech op or DJ could prevent this. |

And that heart playlist is very repetitive indeed! We need some new songs!
And we need proper broadcasting, none of these "delayed ad breaks" where you hear silence and auto play, and definitely no dodgy segueways! 2 - What's "auto play"? 3 - What's a "segueway"? 4 - Why haven't you been banned yet? |

Do sit down next to your radio and go through with a fine tooth comb every slightest mistake there is? There is a delay with network shows as the breaks, out / before the news needs to combine with every
heart station. I'm sure we all hear it, but likes of me and others understand why it's happening, but l guess not even the best tech op or DJ could prevent this. I didn't listen to the radio today - I just picked up on one of the posts below stating about this error.

Last news would have been midday unless there was a breaking story.

1 - What's a "delayed ad break"?
2 - What's "auto play"? 3 - What's a "segueway"? 4 - Why haven't you been banned yet? 2) Auto play is when the system has been set up to play something else, such as a track, to avoid long lengths of silence in case of a technical fault. Another example of this is on the East Midlands DAB service, when auto play is used to play a song instead of some adverts that are irrelevant. (Only the national ones play instead of local ones.) 3) A segueway, or segue as it is also known as, is a smooth transition between two different elements on air - usually between two songs, with a "This Is Heart" ident in between. However, on Heart, many of these are not smooth, and crash the vocals in a song by cutting the song too short. Misplaced segue markers, or presenters "back timing" are to blame for this, with some songs having as much as a minute shaved off the end. 4) A poster only gets banned if they violate the terms and conditions of use. Almost all of my posts have been on topic, and I have never broken the terms of use. I am very careful with what I post as I value my account. |

Sorry Guys, I tried to change topic with asking about the new production but Spotify finds a way to get his pointless argument going again...
So... The return of 'Give It Some Heart' with the Olly Murs TV ads - what do you think? I think it's a good move to try and get the Moyles listeners on side - Olly was always on their with him - but I think it's 12 months too late. |

No one associates olly with chris moyles SURELY?! Well heart listeners don't for sure! Heart are deffo not trying to attract listeners who used to listen to chris moyles, what made you think that?
Radio 1's target is 15-24, Heart aim for slightly older (20's to 30's?) females. Having said that even the correct age group will be put off if segueways like these are continued to be aired! |

If you're going to criticise my recordings from Heart, at least use the correct terminology! |
