Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Listening to Radio on SoftSqueeze - WMA Error
OK... So with no replies, I am guessing that one of a few things is happening: 1. this is a known issue that people are tired of hearing about... 2. no one is having this problem 3. there is an obvious answer 4. there is no answer There are probably more reasons... Bottom line, I want to listen to my local radio stations in RadioIO, and am bumping into this WMA error...and have searched high and low and cannot find an answer... Any help would be greatly appreciated :) -- MikeekiM MikeekiM's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19937 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53224 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Fantastic...thanks... So I did see AlienBBC in my search, but it sounded like it was just for decoding BBC content... I know, I know...wma is wma is wma...so what's the deal... But just for certain, will this AlienBBC plugin decode all my wma stations? -- MikeekiM MikeekiM's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19937 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53224 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Listening to Radio on SoftSqueeze - WMA Error
It is strange that you needed AlienBBC because normally SC on Windows have all the application (wmadec) already setup to handle WMA for Softsqueeze/SB1. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53224 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
