nice, gonna give this a shot

Just a headsup, I tried streaming a few different radio stations and none of them worked...I deleted the app and might try installing it again later when I have a chance

[AbeFrohman]

Same problem. I've got high hopes, but it's not working for the internet radio. Errors reported, feedback sent.

Make it work! I'd love to be able to add streaming stations from the internet!

Well I don't know about you guys. But I'm using 8320 4.5.0.37, on Tmobile, over EDGE. And have been streaming radio perfectly. This is a great addition to a great program.

Only thing, when you select stop while streaming, I don;t know if its supposed to, but i get a prompt that says "xPlayer - Connection was broken - ok"


But so far, streaming radio is working great... keep it up.

[AbeFrohman]

Hmm... maybe it's a Verizon thing. The other poster and I are both VZW and can't get it to work.

(shaking my fist at the sky): VerIIIIIIzon!

What kind of streams are available? I have tried streams with mms protocol and with asx extension to no avail.

[BloopBloop]

8320 .46 os, and none of them could connect. ive sent in my errors

[frasej]

Yes, it does seem to be a Verizon thing. The built-in stations get "Connection has been broken" then "Playback error". Those I added get "The media stream is not available".

[DravenX]

I tried it as well and getting the same errors.

[jp316ad]

I tried it and the internet radio works on mine but it slows down the program a lot.
