Streaming Radio on SPV E200.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi'ya peeps!

Little question, has anyone managed to use Streaming radio on there SPV E200, as I tried it on the orginal SPV and it used to just buffer all the time?

Also does anyone know how much 30mins of streaming radio will cost via GPRS?

Cheers.

30mins you say?

Depends on how much it costs per Kb on your tarriff...

Let's assume you're trying to stream a 28kbps stream.

28000 / 8 = 3500 bytes per sec

Over 30 mins

(3500 * 60) * 30 = 6300000 bytes

6300000 / 1024 = 6152.34375 Kb (~6MB)

Quite a lot! And yes I'm pretty sure my calculations are correct.

For the rich only I'm afraid.

Yes... 30 minutes of 28.8K streaming is going to be in the region of 5mb; taking buffering into account and so on. Not particularly cost effective... unless you have bluetooth access on your home computer and stream media via the pass-through connection :)

I think GPRS pack 5 costs in the region of £8 a month on Orange.
