Guest Menneisyys Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I’ve been told it’s impossible to play back, say, UK-based LBC on Windows Mobile, while, for example, the iPhone already has a client for this station. Being a streaming & Internet protocol freak (I *really* hope you’ve read my past, streaming-related tutorials and bibles), I quickly captured the real URL behind the stream. Just click the link: Windows Media Player Mobile will start and play it back. Now, you can’t say I don’t provide you with some very nice, self-invented hacks to show to your iPhone friends (“yes, I know, so far, it was impossible to play back this stream under Windows Mobile; this, however, isn’t the case any more”) ;-) Incidentally, you may also want to ask me to provide access to some of the multimedia streams you want to play back on WinMo - I may be able to help you with them too. Please, public messages / requests only, for example, under this article so that the other readers can also learn from our discussion / my solution. No private messages are answered! I, however, didn’t stop at that. I’ve continued investigating the other streams on the same streaming server, Mediaweb-Musicradio to help my readers wanting to listen to them: I’ve quickly coded a small program to dump all the available streams. They’re as follows: Capital Radio Gold XFM London Beacon Radio Leicester Sound Mercia FM Derby's RAM FM 102.8 Wyvern FM Fun Radio XFM Manchester Champion 103 Ten-17 FM Mercury 96.6 FM Mercury 102.7 FM 103.1 Beacon Radio Nottingham's 96 Trent FM Planet Rock Classic FM Chill GWR FM Bristol BRMB BRMB - low XFM Scotland XFM Manchester Red Dragon Red Dragon Invicta FM Ocean FM Power FM Power FM - low Fox FM Capital Radio Southern FM Our Kind of Music Classic FM TV LBC 1152 Heart Digital The Arrow You can also access the list HERE as a simple HTML file. If you download the HTML file and store it on your phone, you won’t even need to reconnect to my server to access the list – just tap the HTML file and you can instantly click any of the stations. If you don’t want to do this, you may still want to prefer bookmarking this HTML file and not the one embedded in this article to reduce the waiting time for the article to download and render. As usual, I provide you with the source of my app to see how it does it magic; it’s available HERE (it’s a Java app.) The above is the (manually) verified list of the stations listed in the directory, generated by this app. Unfortunately, few stations of the full list work. Nevertheless, I really hope you’ll like it.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
