Sirius is not working
Sat, 01/17/2009 - 22:12 — allanoas
I'm using this latest firmware. I have checked the box on the Reciva website under "My Sirius". The description on the Reciva site says that once the box is checked and a station load done on the radio, Sirius stations are supposed to show up under My Stuff.
The new firmware has "Sirius" as a menu item under "Internet Radio" that prompts for a Sirius ID. I have a Sirius Canada subscription that includes full internet access to stations, but it will not log on.
Won't work unless you have PREMIUM
In order to get Sirius on an Internet radio, you have to have Premium service at an extra $2.99 (US) a month. If you do not have that, and only have the 32KB services (Premium is 128KB), then it will not work. It's the way Sirius wants it, not a Grace or Reciva issue.

Re:Information on Sirius - 2009/01/22 03:37 Bought my wife the Grace 1000 for her bday today. She got the radio working. to get Sirius working, you must subscribe to their Premium Internet radio service ($2.99/month if you already have a Sirius subscription). Then online at your revica account, go to My Sirius and put in your Sirius username and pw. You then need to power unplug and re-plug your Grace radio to update the stations. From the Grace menu >stations > sirius. Select "sirius" and then you have the categories (rock, classical, etc)scroll to the bottom and you get >all which will list the stations in numerical order. Slightly different choices then on your Sirius radio, but more than enough if you are a Sirius fan (you can get the complete list on the Sirius site).
Sirius access on your radio
Please note Sirius Canada does not currently offer Sirius 'premium' internet radio. They only allow streaming to a PC. They may add this service in the future.
In the US, Sirius provides internet radio service in their premium packages. However, you have to upgrade to Sirius Premium internet radio service to listen to it on our radio or other stand alone device.
It is my understanding that
It is my understanding that Sirius access has been pulled from the latest firmware due to problems
and more important other issues. It should be added back soon, but there is no problem on your
end.
FINALLY got an answer
i've been having problems accessing sirius online since last week. i called customer service 3x. they tried telling me it was my computer (even though I told them it couldn't be because i could not access sirius online from 3 other computers) so they had me delete cookies, update my browser, download a new browser (firefox), and download a new media player -- all to no avail. I had asked last week if there were other people w/the same problems, and the customer service rep said he had no way of knowing. i called again today and insisted on speaking to a manager. the manager told me that they are aware of this problem and have been bombarded w/phone calls and admitted the problem was at their end -- it's tied into the new digital quality system. he said it won't be fixed until april 11!!!!!! i got a 1-month credit. they should have some mess'g on their website alerting the consumer as to what is going on.
