I'm at work and Pandora is the only music site that plays on my PC but when the PC times out or if I minimized the screen Pandora quits playing. The only reason I subscribed to Pandora is because I thought I was going to be able to listen to it at work which I can but with a time out and minimized screen problem. Does anyone have a solution for this because I would really hate to give up the subscription because I can't listen to the music at work.
Hi @otharj! 👋🏻Thanks for posting to community! I moved your post over to our Desktop board to help keep things organized.
Could you clarify what you mean by 'PC times out'? Are you getting any type of message that pops up?
Also, are you listening from:
Sometimes when computers go into a power-save mode and/or when a screensaver turns this disrupts the music stream. You would need to adjust any power-save options.
Let me know.
PC times out means if you don't do anything for 10 minutes with the computer it will time out, minimize the screen and 5 minutes later the screensaver will start. I'm at work trying to listen to Pandora on Pandora's website and the my place of employment uses Microsoft Edge as their browser.
Hi @otharj, based on your description is sounds like your PC is going into a power-save mode when it times out or the screensaver is activated. This may be affecting the playback on your computer.
I would recommend adjusting these settings, this may mean not letting the computer 'sleep' when a screensaver comes on and/or adjust any power-save options or turn them off completely.
