Star  Need help with streaming radio station Post: #1
Hi all. Not sure if this is the right place for this but it's the closest related subforum I can find.

I'm trying to listen to a radio station from my country and just can't seem to get it to work. The url was originally a .asp file located here. I followed the "How to play internet streams" wiki and created a .strm file from a txt file with a mms link inside. When I play the file, XBMC stays on "buffering" and nothing happens. I've tried all the links below but no luck.

this is what the original asp file contains

Code:
<ASX VERSION="3.0">

        <TITLE>Kaya FM (95.9) Live Radio stream</TITLE>
        <copyright>2007, Kaya FM</copyright>
        <author>Powered by Antfarm & Internet Solutions</author>
        <abstract>Streaming radio, live from Johannesburg</abstract>
    <MOREINFO HREF="http://www.kayafm.co.za" TARGET="_blank"/>

BTW, I am a Windows user and the links work fine in WMP11.


I'd appreciate any help with this and apologies again if this is the wrong place for this
