Hi one and all. I've been messing about with streaming radio and have the SCLister plug in, all though it's good it's not what i'm after.

What i want to do is go on to a radio station homepage click there link to listen to the radio (a box appears) , but play it though QCD.

When I've dragged the link onto QCD this appears:

javascript:detection();

but unfortunately no music, can someone point me in the correct direction?

Cheers

sounds to me like your QCD isn't associated for whatever type of media your radio station provides.

what browser are you using?
what type of media is the radio station providing (do you have a website address?)

FYI, it plays windows media format.

dragging that javascript link onto the player won't work, not even for windows media player. you have to use one of the following

for QCD: Add Music and enter the URL for streaming media (at the bottom of the open dialog box). this didn't work for me and other people have reported problems getting streaming wma working, but you can see this thread: http://beta.quinnware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=308

for WMP: File > Open URL

What is the URL, you ask? you have to check out the javascript source, but i found it: http://ms2.capitalinteractive.co.uk/power_low
