embeding a web radio

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 18.2004

Hey there, I’m currently using the following code to embed a web radio into my site:

[code]<embed src=”http://station address”

width=”180″ height=”70″ mute=”0″ enablecontextmenu=”1″ showdisplay=”0″

autostart=”1″ playcount=”0″ showaudiocontrols=”1″ showstatusbar=”1″

showcontrols=”1″>
</embed>[/code]

This code basically integrates a windows media player window into my site. However, with this code, I can’t link to sites with .pls files (ie. [url]http://www.someradio.com/listen.pls[/url]). Could anybody tell me the code to embed that or is windows media player unable to read those .pls files?
Thx ?

@PeOfEoJul 19.2004 — Try going with something other then an http stream, it might help. rtsp, real time stream protocal might be better, RTSP://someradio.domain/

http stream... you using nullsoft winamp shoutcast? I know media player can open it....

@skyfxauthorJul 20.2004 — I don't wanna use Real Player b/c most peeps don't have it and don't want it, whereas Windows Media Player 99% of the people have. I just know that when I link it to a http://www.address.com/listen.pls it doesn't play it in a Windows Media window ?. Any ideas?

@PeOfEoJul 20.2004 — where did I say anything about real player? RTSP is a protocal, quick time and windows can handle it.

@PeOfEoJul 22.2004 — Is this a shoutcast stream? I tried to play one with windows media player and it said format not supported. Try playing with the shoutcast configuration, there should be a faq on it somewhere, are you running the shoutcast server?

Yea, it's a shoutcast stream. I got the same the error in windows media player when trying to load one. And no, I'm not the one running the server.

[/B][/QUOTE] I have opened shoutcast in media player before, thats the weird part. I used to run a shoutcast server back in the day. But it seems like its a server config issue.
