Excellent recommendation. All that is needed now is some minor translations in the shoutcastplayer.rb file.

Thanks

Post by: lardman on October 01, 2005, 10:45:13 am: I ran it through google and I saw that it's GPL (I think - the translation wasn't the greatest), was there a link to the source anywhere (so it can be added to OE)?

Post by: ensign on October 02, 2005, 05:21:46 am: ...And here is the translated (to english) version of the source - thanks to google.

For those interested.

a. copy attached file to /home/QtPalmtop/bin
b. change the extension from .txt to .rb
c. change the shoutcast icon to run shoutcastplayer_en.rb.

Thanks.

Thank you!

Yes but it studders and stops and crashes like mad.

I used to have xmms on my zaurus to play streams and it did it nearly flawless. But I reflashed with the watapon rom and forgot how to install xmms

I'll give this a try, thanks!

Post by: icruise on October 02, 2005, 10:01:33 pm: This is very nice. I can stream 128kbps music with no problem over my bluetooth connection to my Mac. It seems to crash if I put anything in the Search box though. And yes, it is GPL.

Post by: lardman on October 03, 2005, 05:11:53 am: From the look of it, it's not really a player, more of a browser (much like streamtuner - http://www.nongnu.org/streamtuner/) (http://www.nongnu.org/streamtuner/)).
