Shoutcast radio

Postby roy99664 » 08 Jun 2010 07:14

There are no radio stations listed in My Shoutcast Radio Station playlist to choose from. How do I get the list to show up?

Thanks
Roy

I've actually noticed the same behavior with Shoutcast TV on Windows and Linux just recently. I'm guessing that the format for the shoutcast listings has changed again. The lists seem to work fine in Winamp.

Shoutcast support has been discontinued. The terms proposed by Nullsoft were not acceptable.

Well that's a bummer... now I gotta use that bloated piece of Winamp for family guy. Thank you for the reply.

Out of curiosity... are the terms publicly available for those who want to be in the know?

This is not so much of an issue anymore, especially in windows. Now we can use VLC to stream last.fm, Pandora, etc. Here is a thread from another forum that I used to get started with radio streaming through VLC. Nullsoft probably didn't realize they were going to essentially become obsolete when they were playing hardball:

Hope this helps if anybody out there is still wondering about streaming radio...
