Otvoreni - Live

Otvoreni - Live ranks 9 among 53 stations in Croatia. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

With four recorded opens, Otvoreni - Live sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Croatia's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

The gap here is large: 48 kbps where Croatia's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

AAC here, on a dial that carries four different formats. A mixed codec listing usually means a country whose stations are hosted in several different places rather than through one dominant provider.

The stream is served from stream.otvoreni.hr, an address three other entries in Croatia use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.

Otvoreni - Live keeps its own site at otvoreni.hr. The address sits under Croatia's country code, which lines up with where the directory says the station broadcasts from.
