Firefox radio not working
« on: February 26, 2010, 12:46:46 PM »
Hi folks i like to listen to the radio while i am working. however, When I click on "LIsten now" the web player box comes up as normal but nothing happens.  Just says Mplayer plugin.  Initialising.  And that's it nothing happens.  I have reinstalled Mplayer but it does not make any difference.
Any ideas?

Nice music Donald ;)!

Well it plays here. Using Mplayer. I didn't press "Listen Live" button! I pressed Click to listen live with PC player Got a pop up window. Pressed If you already have a compatible player installed, click here to access the audio / video you've requested. Waited for 10sec and bingo.

Lots off trouble with media streams, just use the Firefox addon MediaPlayerConnectivity

https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/search?q=mediaplayerconnectivity&cat=all&advancedsearch=1&as=1&appid=1&lver=3.5&atype=0&pp=20&pid=2&sort=&lup=

Nice stream btw, just used my Dutch postal code to play.................

That works fine.  I don't know why mplayer stopped working.
Maybe I should learn Dutch.

Thanks for the help
