With streams from commercial radio stations such as ClassicFM in the UK, one of the tricky things can be to get the name of the stream, as many websites wrap the stream links up in javascripted pages, so it can be necessary to use a PC to view the source and trace it through to the final mms:// or rtsp:// etc url. | With streams from commercial radio stations such as ClassicFM in the UK, one of the tricky things can be to get the name of the stream, as many websites wrap the stream links up in javascripted pages, so it can be necessary to use a PC to view the source and trace it through to the final mms:// or rtsp:// etc url. | ||

Streaming Audio
Since the first Zauruses came on the scene, it's been possible to listen to streaming audio.
How well this works depends on a few things, but primarily it's the quality of the link from the Zaurus to the internet, both bandwidth/throughput and low latency/jitter; in general the Zaurus has enough processor power to handle the task of decompressing mp3 and ogg/ although it may stutter if you try and do too much that's processor or I/O intensive.
With the 860 and faster processors, I have been able to listen to radio streams of 128kbps mp3, using wireless networking or usb networking.
There are many streams listed on www.shoutcast.com, simply save the .pls file and then open it in Kino2, or, read the file at the command shell and then open the stream using "mplayer", e.g. "mplayer mms://music.example.com/radio?xxx"
With streams from commercial radio stations such as ClassicFM in the UK, one of the tricky things can be to get the name of the stream, as many websites wrap the stream links up in javascripted pages, so it can be necessary to use a PC to view the source and trace it through to the final mms:// or rtsp:// etc url.
Here are some useful playlists:
