webradio applet

[DjEddie]

hi..

Ive bought and installed the applet... all shows up on my site absolutely fine...

Only problem being, is that I can't get it to play my radio station .. I know the shoutcast radio server works..as ive being using the bog standard windows media player to play the station thru ...

Can you tell me if this coding is correct.. or what I can do to make it play..

<station url="http://81.19.209.202:8016">
<name>IBass-Radio Live Djs</name>
<genre>All Dance Genres</genre>
</station>

It says Sockets are not open on this server... when clearly they are as I said above been using it throught windows media player on site for couple of years..

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hello

This code

<station url="http://81.19.209.202:8016">
<name>IBass-Radio Live Djs</name>
<genre>All Dance Genres</genre>
</station>

looks fine. I think that problem is the type of stream.
Flash plays MP3 streams only. You can find many about steams in this forum.

Are you lunch applet from localhost or some host? Maybe problem is that it use proxy.

sorry not too sure what u mean..

I have the flash radio web applet on the forum (which is on one server), and on another server I have are the radio stations...

The connection between both servers have been fine and work, we use a windows media player now, shown on the forum connecting to the radio station on another forum ..

Hello

I look at source file. So, it is php script("php\stream.php") which give stream to flash part through socket:

$sock = @fsockopen($streamname, $port, $errno, $errstr, $time_out);

if($sock)
{
@fputs($sock, "GET $path HTTP/1.0\r\n");
@fputs($sock, "Host: $streamname\r\n");
@fputs($sock, "User-Agent: WinampMPEG/2.8\r\n");

@fputs($sock, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n");



if($ping)
{
$contents = @fread($sock, 8);
echo $contents;
}
else
{
while($contents = @fread($sock, 524))
{
echo $contents;
}
}
fclose($sock);
}

Maybe it's a problem. Ask you administrator if your host allow this thing.
