Hi

First of - thanks for a program getting more and more great by the day Laugh

I have done a bit of reading in the manual and tried to get streaming to work but I can't seem to get it to work.

I have tried to make a strm file but no luck.

The radio file can be found here (asx.asf)

http://www.dr.dk/netradio/wmp.asp

The files can also be found here as .mov

Any suggestions?

BUMP

Sorry for me bumping this one.

Is it posible to stream any audiofile under OSXBMC? The wiki gives a lot of posibillities but a kind seem to add any one of them as a source?

asf (and asx) is usually not the stream itself but rather a redirect to the real MMS stream, so you need to find out the real stream URL and put that into the .strm file (and not the asf/asx which only redirects), try downloading the asf/asx file and then open it in a text-editor. By the way, have you read?:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO:_Play...et_Streams
http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO:_Play...ASX_format

Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.

Yes I have and I have created a strm file with the following content:

[playlist]
numberofentries=1
File1=mms://wmscr2.dr.dk/e02ch03m?wmcontentbitrate=300000

The file is called p3.strm.

It is placed in a library which is added as a source, but Osxbmc can't see/read the file.

Any ideas?
