[slim] Re: ASX stream support
I just received my squeezebox3. All works fine except dutch radio. Realaudio stuff works fine with alienbbc. The asx stream, or whatever the format is, doesn't. As far as I found out radio1 for instance is this link: http://switch.streamgate.nl/cgi-bin/streamswitch?streamid=42a=.asx This doesn't work (of course?). Is it supposed to work? I am also interested in the concertzender. The earlier mentioned links don't work (for me). Is there anyone who has a working radio1-4 or 747am?

Dirk If you look at that URL's source, you'll see it basically links to http://www.omroep.nl/live/radio1-breed.asx. I just plugged that into the 'radio tune-in' and it works.

I tried to download it with wget. But this gives me a different URL. Just curious about this. Thanks, now the squeezebox can play about anything I want!

Actually, if you look at that URL, you'll see it just points to another... which has the real urls, but it's close enough for slimserver to figure out and follow the trail. -- snarlydwarf snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=16968 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I don't know if the guy who started the thread already has his concertzender but this works for me: http://livemedia.omroep.nl/concertzender-breed The 5 channel link didn't work for me.

Wow, I am speechless. I tried so many different links, but not this one. How did you look at URL's source? I tried to download it with wget. But this gives me a different URL. Just curious about this. People speak highly of this shareware tool: http://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/urlsnooper/index.html Many links to streaming audio and video that you come across on the web are hidden behind javascript or activex scripts. Because of this, it is sometimes very difficult to figure out the actual urls that correspond to the streams being played. URL Snooper provides easy solution to finding the URLs for all streams by by watching network traffic and identifying potential urls, especially streaming media urls. I haven't used it myself yet, but I have it bookmarked for the next time I need to reverse engineer a hidden streaming media link.

[slim] Re: ASX stream support
Hi there- somebody can correct me if I'm wrong but... ASX is just a playlist file. If you open one in notepad, it just contains some header information and a list of links to (normally) wmv audio streams. So it is not asx that isnt supported but wmv. However, if you download the latest beta, you will find that wmv is supported if you have the slimserver turned on (yes- that does defy the object but at least your computer doesnt have to do on the fly converting). The reason you cannot yet get wmv on squeezenetwork is because the squeezenetwork servers have not yet been updated to support this- I'm sure this is fairly easy but wont be available until an official release comes out -as opposed to the beta's. Hope this makes sense Jono -- jonolumb ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Re: ASX stream support
You're right about ASX being a playlist..However, the file that is loaded when you click on the Surround Link image (SR) on http://www.concertzender.nl/cgi/sr.php is an asx.file that does not contain a link to a wmv file. It opens windows media players that starts the streaming. I do not know how to make this link available to the squeezebox. Maybe you have any suggestions? BTW - I don't need to have it available on the squeezenetwork, since my slimserver is on all of the time. I'd like to make a reference to this stream so that I can listen to it, just as other radiostations, like Live365 etc. Any help will be greatly appreciated, as this is the first SURROUND stream that I have found.

had to go round the houses a little, but try putting the following into the slimserver radio GUI http://livemedia.omroep.nl/concertzender-5channel?MSWMExt=.asf or http://145.58.33.21:80/concertzender-5channel?MSWMExt=.asf -- gingerneil ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Re: ASX stream support
I tried this, but I can't get it to work. SB shows the link in the display, but doesn't start playing. Maybe that's because it's SURROUND WMA? Using Slimserver 6.2b1 - 4551 - Windows XP - EN - cp1252 Thanks for the suggestion, anyway -- SlimPvC ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

try http://www.omroep.nl/live/concertzender-5channel.asx or http://livemedia2.omroep.nl/concertzender-5channel or http://livemedia.omroep.nl/concertzender-5channel Good Luck Jono -- jonolumb ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
