How to find Internet Radio adress? (1 Viewer)

[Spragleknas]

I've seen long post with .pls-files, but how do you "find" them?

For instance, how can you find the .PLS to this station:
http://www.radio102.no/

Then press this image on that site:

Hey Okay,

on that page they used an own (JavaScript) player so you needed to dig into the HTML source. Then it's always usefull to find something like

<EMBED TYPE="application/x-mplayer2" 
         ID=player 
         NAME="player" 
         
	 SRC="/player/asx/204.asx?playerKey=radio102&ad=589&nospot"
         
         VOLUME=-500 
         xPLUGINSPAGE="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" 
       PLUGINSPAGE="http://download.microsoft.com/download/winmediaplayer/nsplugin/6.4/WIN98/EN-US/wmpplugin.exe"

The source (SRC) would be then: http://www.nwrweb.com/player/asx/204.asx?playerKey=radio102&ad=589&nospot

This should work in MP.

For a pls example visit http://www.radioseven.se then click on Lyssna nu and then on the Winamp link. It's holding the pls file and you can save it to your hdd with a right mouse click.

Pls ist mostly used for Winamp/Shoutcast/general MP3 streams while the site you mentioned is a Windows Media Player stream.

This one does not work altough it is shown: http://212.34.174.107:8020/listen.pls

Do I have to install any codecs or other programs (WinAmp?) to listen?

Thanks for your answers!

Just open the pls file in a text editor and paste the contained link like "http://212.34.174.107:8020/" as a new STREAM in the MP radio setup.

You can also open the pls with winamp and when the stream plays go to file information (where you also set the ID3 tags) and copy the stream url from there.

I don't know, I used Maschine's hint, maybe that one should be put in the FAQ or the manual/wiki. The thread in the Tips&Tricks-section is pretty out-dated .

dunno about the tips and tricks section, or the faq, the important thing is it just works!
