If the url starts with mms://, rtsp://, rtp:// or pnm:// you know it's the media-link :)
You can tell what codec, bitrate, rate etc is used by running:
$ mplayer -identify <link>
"ffwmav2" and "ffwmav1" is WMA. Most others come up as MP3, Vorbis, etc.. RealPlayer uses a lot of different codecs, just select "RealAudio" if the link is rtsp:// or pnm:// .
I will write documentation on how to find the links later this week. 95% of the time it is very easy!
Right now I'm working on the http://www.live365.com stations.. They are very tricky, they use 50+ JavaScript function()s spread out on over 20 .js-files (<script language=JavaScript src=file.js>) and you need to get and submit cookies to get the links because the media-links contain values found in cookies. If the values are wrong you get a looped MP3 that says "make sure you're logged on properly!".. but I'm getting there.. ;) I think I have found how to get all needed info with the least HTTP-accesses, I just have to write a script to get it automatically with only the stationname as parameter. :)

I have made a basic webinterface for adding new stations now.
Please check the examples at http://webradio.sourceforge.net and start adding stations! ;)
It generates files in the upcoming Freevo-format, GXine mediamarks-format, and ASX, PLS and M3U playlists. :)
Unfortunatly Sourceforge won't let me connect outside the webserver so I will have to write a "sql proxy" in PHP to be able to automatically verify the links from my workstation instead.. My first intention was to parse submitted playlists and verify URLs etc in real-time as people are submitting (with the possibility to add needed cookies, referreres, user-agents, include/exclude regexps etc) but now I will have to do it from crontab at home instead unless I can find a less restricted webhost.. :/
Submit links to playlists instead of direct media-links if possible! Then the media-links will be automatically (re-)generated from the playlist every night if they change. (when it's implemented that is :))
