I'm not an expert on streaming radio but I do read the forums a lot. :-) NY2006 Wrote: > I decided to order Squezebox today...looking forward to the many > features available...A few questions, I read Squeeze supports Rhapsody > as well as other services.

I remember reading that MLB audio is highly protected and won't play on a Squeezebox. > Also is there a general access with Squeeze for various AM-FM radio > streams ? I mean can you access say all Chicago radio stations by > browsing or searching with Squezebox ? The Squeezebox is a server/Internet client, so to access a stream it must first be on the Internet. Most radio stations do have streams now, but not all. Slim Devices has organized some streams by city/region but it's not definitive. Look here: http://www.radio-locator.com/ for a list of all licensed stations in an area. Often there will be a link to their website or you can search for it. > I would like to access many radio stations from Canada. Streams from around the world work well for me from London, Ontario. Keep in mind these are low-bandwidth streams, 128 kbps or less, so they fly across the network pretty easily. > How does Squezebox work with XM Radio ? No plugin for XM yet. Forum member GoCubs has made a Sirius plugin. Obviously you have to be a Sirius subscriber to use it - the plugin uses your user name/password to access Sirius' Internet streams. > Last but not least can I use the remote by bedside to search for AM-FM > radio streams ? > Thanks. They've got to be on the Internet. Actually it's not possible to enter a URL directly using the remote. You can browse lists that Slim Devices have pre-arranged. You can also add streams beforehand to your Favorites or a playlist from the web interface. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26395 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
