The mplayer plugin plays inside firefox. (I neglected to mention to get the mplayer GUI too, from plf.) > Also, the stream that I > listen to is KOGO Radio at: http://www.kogo.com/streaming.html Mplayer plays this, as does Kaffeine. Kaffeine uses Xine as a player and Kaffeine is a spiffed-up GUI to it. Get all of the Xine stuff while you're at it from plf. The best way to get at the stream of KOGO is from www.radiolocator.com. They have the real URL, not the URL from the web site buried in a bunch of java junk. Search on KOGO to get it, or any other station that streams, for that matter. In Kaffeine you can set up a playlist of your favorite streams, which make them easy to get to. Kaffeing is a stand-alone player that dicks to the panel and disappears if you want, freeing the desktop and the browser for other things. > http://www.unknowncountry.com/ This also plays in Kaffeine ands Mplayer, though the actual URL is also buried in a bunch of junk. From Konqueror, look at the player windows document source, and the URL will be obvious. Mplayer and the plug-in also play these streams. And as was mentioned in the last response, do check out Streamtuner (available from Mandrake as an rpm) . It has a huge collection of online streams of all kinds, as does www.publicradiofan.com Rick
