"What
do you mean I don't need an iPod to listen to a Podcast?"
First and foremost a Podcast is an MP3 file and all you
need to play it is an MP3 player. There are multiple 100's of
Millions of MP3 players out there - They are called computers.
With the help of FREE software such as
iTunes or
Quicktime or
Windows Media Player - You are already able to listen to a
Podcast. You only need an iPod or other Mobile MP3 Player if
you want to listen to a podcast while you are working out,
driving to work or taking the dog for a walk.... |

Streaming Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
-
How do I install iTunes?
iTunes is now compatible
with both Macintosh and Windows. Go to the Apple site's iTunes
download page at
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/. This page has
information about system requirements.
-
Can I listen to your mp3 streams with
Windows Media™ Player?
The newest
versions of Windows Media™ Player (7.0 and higher) on the
newer Windows operating systems (2000, ME, XP) should play
our mp3 streams. (But we have not always had good luck.)
Windows Media Player 6.4 on Windows NT will not. If you have
one of the new versions but can't get your player to launch
when you click on the .pls or .m3u links on the Listen
Online (link) page, cut and paste one of the following URL's
into your player:
http://96.229.65.104:8000/listen.pls
In tests so far,
we have not had any luck getting the Macintosh version of
WMP to play our streams. If you have better luck, please let
us know. You can download Windows Media Player at
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/default.asp
-
How can I
listen with other players?
If you
have a different player from the one above and it doesn't
launch itself, try cutting and pasting the following
addresses into the location, open stream, or other URL entry
area of your player:
http://96.229.65.104:8000/listen.pls
-
When I click on the links to listen,
my player doesn’t launch. What should I do?
Whether or not
your player launches automatically depends on how you have
configured your personal system and whether or not you have
designated a default MP3 player.
In iTunesClick on
"Advanced" and choose "Open Stream". Type one of the above
URL's in the "Open Stream" dialog box and click "ok."
-
Why is the
stream cutting out and rebuffering?
If your computer is not receiving the stream data fast
enough, you will experience drop-outs and rebuffering. The
rebuffering occurs when your computer tries to catch up with
missed data. Many times this is caused by Internet
congestion or insufficient bandwidth. It can also happen
when you try to connect to a stream that has a bit rate that
is too high for your modem or connection speed.
If you’re having a problem with rebuffering, make sure you
are using the stream that is best for your modem or way of
connecting to the Internet. The 24kbps stream is recommended
for 28k modems or faster. The 64kbps and 112kbps streams are
recommended for cable modems, ISDN, DSL, and T1 connections.
You can also try deleting temporary files, clearing memory
cache, or rebooting your computer.
-
What do I do if
I get a message that asks me if I want to "save to disk" or
"open file from location?"
Choose
"open file from location."
-
Why can’t I connect to your stream?
There could be several reasons. Make sure your
player(s) are installed correctly. Also, if you’re listening
at work, you may be behind a firewall that won’t allow
streaming. It is also possible that we’re having a problem
on our end and the stream is down temporarily.
-
I want to
listen at work and may be behind a firewall. What should I
do?
Ask your system administrator or
IT department to open port 80 and port 8000 which support
audio and video streaming.
