Internet Radio Streaming on Tilt?

Since my car stereo is not working right now, and my favorite radio station streams over the internet, I was wondering if there is a way to listen to it using my Tilt.
I tried browsing to the website using my phone, and once I click the "Listen Live" link, I get a connection error. Any insight appreciated.
Radio Station: 93.3 WMMR
http://www.wmmr.com
Listen Live link:
http://gmppodcast.com/stream/WMMR

download gsplayer or tcpmp player. I listen to shoutcast on both of these.

I'm trying to listen to WHTZ-NY Z100...
http://www.z100.com/cc-common/streaming_onesite/index.html?refreshed=yes
They used to have an embedded link, but I think it's been changed to some dynamic link or password. Can anyone figure this out? It's a WMA stream, too.

I already had TCPMP installed, and I just tried gsplayer. Neither works unfortunately.
Can someone that has either of these programs working on this Kaiser try to connect to the stream I listed above?

Try going to the settings in TCPMP and checking the unchecked boxes in the file associations tab that pertain to what type of media you are trying to access or stream in your case...

Have you tried www.thestreamcenter.com/pda ?
Click on PA, then scroll to 93.3 WMMR
It worked for me using WMP.

I am able to stream a NJ station, WFMU through TCPMP, but I haven't had any luck with either of the other two stations mentioned in this thread. If you want to test out your player's streaming capability try http://mp3stream.wfmu.org
It appears that the links for both of the other stations mentioned in this thread load a player that in turn accesses the stream. If you can get the actual stream's URL I'm thinking it will load fine. Those URL's wont stream in WMP 11 on my PC either.
One thing I did notice about TCPMP is that it didn't initiate the internet link, I had to connect using IE and then start the stream. I was accessing via EDGE, don't know if you would need that step with WiFi or not.

Your sig says att. Did you uncheck the proxy in the connection setting manager and try it?

Winamp Remote works really well on my Tilt. It's not radio, but you can stream your music (and videos, though I haven't tried any yet) from your home computer right into Windows Media Player.

did you download the .dlls that tcpmp needs for this type of stuff and copy them to your windows directory?

To those that still have this problem, try installing flash Player 7 to your device (fp7_ppc_en) you can google it. Don't install it to your storage card. I tried and it am getting some sound and not the message to download flash player. I had already had flash player downloaded to the storage card.
Hope this helps.

I was able to find the stream on this site. After I click the link, WMP opens and starts to buffer, but then comes up with Failed.
Do I need to modify proxy settings in order for the stream to work from this site? And if so, will that affect any other web browsing? I do not use MEdia Net, so I'm not worried if it affects that.

Listening Internet Radio streams via Kaiser

Hello!
I have this problem: how to listen .m3u (mp3 / aac) / .asx / listen.pls / .rm / etc
type of online internet radio station streams using HTC Tytn II (kaiser) ?
I have tried Pocket Player and WinVibe, but they didn't work start listening the stream
One stream I'd like to hear is http://radio.cbs.nu/cbs96.m3u
Getting netradio to work would make this excellent device even more better! So can someone pls help me with this matter!!
Thanks in Advance,
Petri Lyytinen

Do you have Real Player installed? I think it covers some of the formats you mentioned. I can't tell you for sure as iv'e sent of my Kaiser to get the screen fixed.

Pocket RealOne is required to play .rm files unless there's another player i'm not aware of that plays Real Audio. While I don't stream anything except .asf (.wmwebasf) files, I would assume that Windows Media Player would play mp3 streams as well as the asx streams. You could try TCPMP for the asx and mp3 streams as well.

I installed RealPlayer, but it didn't help me, since I want that CBS (.m3u) stream to work.. I didn't find any interesting netradios working with rtsp protocol
*sigh*
edit:
Dang, I'm stupid.. I got the CBS netradio work when I saved the .m3u as text file, opened it and copy-pasted the given URL inside it ( http://radio.cbs.nu:80/cbs96 ) .. Yey!
I'm using now Pocket Player by Conduits
Now, is there any suggestions which is best stream player (less CPU consuming and bugs, and faster?)

Quicktime audio streams on pocket IE

I was wondering if this is possible. I'm taking this Japanese class and the audio files are all online but you need some form of a quicktime plugin to view them. Is this possible on the Tilt? If this has been a topic of talk before I'm sorry, I searched and found nothing that would help. Thanks! -Dante

is converting the files an option, or only streaming? Hope you didn't say free.

hope that helps.

40 bucks... ouch. There is a trial for it so I'll give it a try to see how it works. If it goes well i'll open the good old wallet up and pay for the full thing. Thanks for the promt reply!

First some questions:
How is the audio streamed? via RTP/RTSP/SDP?
- RTP/RTSP: see the prefix of the link (eg. rtsp://...)
- SDP: prefix is normally http://...
Or has the link got an extension? Like .aac, .m4a, .m3u,...
I know RTP/RTSP is supported by Coreplayer (I use it to stream video), but I have no idea about SDP (no experience)
Are the audio streams accessible for other people, like me? In that way I can test it with Coreplayer if you like.
Hope my help is/will be useful...

chances are, those sound files are well-known sound files that tcpmp can play... it's free, so try installing that and select the appropriate suffixes to be the default player for.

TCPMP- File Associations

Does anyone know why TCPMP will not open when accessing mobile Youtube videos? When I try to open a link at m.youtube the stock HTC "Steaming Media" player always opens.
I have:
-a HTC S730
-WM6
-TCPMP Ver. .72RC1
-Installed FLV Plugin 0.4.2
-Associated Files-Flash Video, MMS Protocol, Mpeg, HTTP, AIF, M3U, NSV, OGG, Matroska, Musepack and PLS -and at one point all files
-Done a soft reset
-uninstalled and reinstalled both TCPMP and the plugin
I expect that the TCPMP would open...?? Please correct me if Im wrong.
The reason I want to use the TCPMP player vs the Streaming Media player is that the Streaming Media player has poor A/V quality and Im hoping TCPMP will improve it. Thanks.

You might want to take a look in This thread, might help.

Thanks for the reply. Ive read through the tread, different problem.
Ive downloaded the files and followed the instructions @ ytpocket again. Still opening files with Streaming Media..!!!! Its driving me nuts.

Hmm, if no one has responded by time I wake up i'll take a peak into it I never really use You Tube on my phone and if I do I find the default to be sufficient.
In the mean time double check all the menu options in it to see if you can change the default association, I know you mentioned associated files but the program needs to tell the OS that it will take over instead of the other, this might be accomplished with a simple registry change but again not sure.

M3U Streaming & Android & Nexus One

First off, would like to say thanks to all the great people here who have helped me over the years in unlocking, modding, theme-ing and generally hacking my various phones... I have never felt the need to start a thread as I could always find the answer somewhere in here - but this one has me stumped.
Since purchasing my NexusOne (running CM5.0.6), I have been searching for an app to replace Pocket Music Player that I used to use on my WinMo phone. Basically what it was able to do is read m3u files that had URLs instead of local file names. I think I have tried every Android media playing app and they are unable to read the file (except for one) - they actually delete the file from the SDCard after trying to play it! DroidLive was the only app I could find that would load and play the file, but provides no way to view the playlist, skip tracks or read any of the metadata (because I think it assumes its a live stream).
Why is this is important? I am currently running an apache webserver on my D-Link DNS-323 along with a bit of code called musicbrowser (open source project) that allows browsing, streaming (flash based), playlist creation & downloading of music on my home network. Basically, you navigate to the tracks you want, hit stream and it sends you an m3u file with the URLs of the tracks you queued. That way I always have access to whatever tracks I have recently purchased (not to mention the fact that I have ~ 200 GB of music, and some days still can't find something I'm in the mood for).
And just so people know, I have tried every alternative out there - orb (buggy as all hell, server crashes frequently), subsonic (the android app doesn't actually stream - it just downloads the entire playlist to your SDCard), & tonido (unstable as per orb). I was very happy with the way musicbrowser was working on WinMo and just want to get back there with Android.
And so... does anyone know of an app that will properly play M3U files with URLs in them?
(Sorry about the long-ish post, but I wanted to make sure people understood what I was asking for.)

Not sure if it will suit your needs but give steamfurious a shot

m3u Player
Can window media player play .m3u file as a online radio
Is any other software can play .m3u file for window mobile 6.5

Try http://www.gmote.org/faq for "Gmote".
In the FAQ it says:
Are music playlists supported?
Yes. Currently, the M3U format is supported. If your playlists are in a different format, it's possible to convert them to the M3U format. Try Googling something like "WPL to M3U". Also, please let us know what your favorite playlist type is so that we may add it to future versions.
Also, when you select a single song to play, all other songs in that directory will be queued and played after the selected song.

With froyo we get native support for music streaming but I have yet to see any details about the formats supported.

Streamfurious is a no go. Tried it, but thanks for the suggestion.
I'm not exactly sure what the WinMo question was getting at, but no - WMP would not play them but just about every other player did - Core, Pocket Music, Mort...
GMote is an app that controls a local source from a network location & and what I am looking for is to play networked music via a local source.
Perhaps I will just have to wait for 2.2 and hope that solves my problem.

You could try Subsonic to stream your music. I tried it a few weeks ago, and it worked. Not as user friendly as most to set up, but it looks like you could handle it easily.

I have tried subsonic and while it claims to stream, all the android app does is download everything to the device (ie. it was trying to download my entire music collection OTA - not good for my data plan.)
I just flashed froyo to my device and while I am overall thrilled with it, I am unimpressed that the streaming m3u issue is still there...
Still looking for a solution if anyone finds one! Thanks for all the input thus far.

I've written and published a program called "Just Playlists" which reads M3U files and uses them to directly locate music files on the SD card via file paths. I'm close to releasing a new version that will also stream music pointed to by URL's within the M3U (or PLS) playlists. I added this feature to allow for playing SHOUTcast/ICEcast streams, but it will also play remote audio files. This may help you out. The only caveat is that I don't get ID3 tag information from the streamed files and I re-connect to the server for each URL, so the gap between tracks may be a bit large.
Another issue you mention is that your M3U files are being deleted by Android. I can explain this one. When Android scans your SD card for media files, it reads the M3U files it finds and, if it can't find any tracks on your SD card corresponding to the file paths in an M3U file, it assumes the file is effectively empty and deletes it. To stop this from happening, place an empty file named ".nomedia" in the directory containing your M3U files. The media scanner will no longer touch this directory or any below it. The new version of "Just Playlists" has an option to create/delete these files, as well.
I hope to have the new version of my program released within a few days.

That sounds awesome! I look forward to release of your app!
I must say this has been most frustrating as this functionality is something I used my phone for the most (even more than the phone part!) and look forward to getting back to it.
Cheers,
H
EDIT: Just noticed your post was more than a few days old and you have released the new version! I am grabbing it now and will report back.

Just Playlists!
THANK YOU! I am literally almost in tears right now. I was so frustrated that I could not stream from archive.org (I bought a bluetooth receiver in my car specifically to be able to stream music in my car from my phone to the speakers). This has made my day. I will be donating after i give it a trial run. THANK YOU!

Try "A Online Radio." I like it better than streamfurious. Really, my only complaint is that it doesn't play WMA streams. I would KILL for a streaming audio program that did.

I'm really glad to hear JP is working out for you! Let me know if you run into any bugs or quirks. Streaming under Android seems to be a bit flaky, so I'm working to make JP's streaming more reliable, or, at the very least, to recover from streaming dropouts in as many cases as possible.

Subsonic doesn't download your entire collection, it creates a database of your entire collection so you know what you have and what you don't.

has anyone found a working soultion for this yet? I have a set of m3u and pls files which are saved URL's of online radio stations, some from shoutcast, some from other sources that on Windows Mobile I used GS Player to listen to
Just Playlists seems to come the closest out of any apps I've tried to working but either gives me an unexpected error message when trying to open the file or it looks like it has opened it but I get no playback.
I've tried StremFurious, VLC S&C and I think one or two others but no luck yet, curious if others have a solution
thanks!

Just installed XiiaLive Lite from the Market (free) It works very well and has a really nice interface. Thanks for pointing it out.

Streaming works but...
Hey streaming works well with Just Playlist but I was hoping to find music player which shows me the content of the playlist.m3u and you can pick from there the song you wanna play... I got my music on NAS but I can access NAS from 3G also and would love to stream my music on the road to my phone... Any ideas for this? I can access the files via http or ftp/sftp... Also if anybody knows good php based media library script with account managment, please tell me (with mobile-layout would be awesome)
