Can someone who is running a stream in Second Life block me from hearing the music?

[Gabby Varela]

I work for a tribute band in Second Life it seems everytime this one person does the stream for the show I never hear the  music and my partner has to pipe it in from private voice. Is it possible that this individual (she does not like me and is jealous) I have no issues with her. Can she somehow prevent me from hearing the stream? As far as I know she does not have me blocked. Others have streamed and I always hear their stream. Thanks.

Hi Gabby,

It is possible for the person hosting a stream to see what IP addresses their stream is going to, and to block or ban IP addresses.  By correlating stream IP address connections with avatar arrivals, it wouldn't be too difficult to figure out which IP is you. And if that's happening, there's nothing you can do about it, except go listen to music somewhere else. If your partner's not cool with that, get a new partner!
