Clear Channel Streams

[maikoherajin]

Does anybody know of any way to make streams such as the following play in Firefox? Or heck, for that matter, I'd take outside of it too.

As far as I know, all of Clear Channel's streams are set up in this way, and I can't play them.

for example.

I have tried gxine, mozilla-mplayer (couldn't even get it to run), and a compiled version of mplayerplug-in. With the last, I am able to stream every test stream I could find (including wmv and avi files), but still can't get these pages to stream. I don't think it is my proxy, because the stream will play fine on a windows computer with WMP9.

Anyone have any luck with these? Any tips to pass on?

I can't get these either to work, but I haven't installed w32codecs yet. Will test it out. Sometimes the streams just won't work. It all depends on what codec the station uses and what works with the plugin.

Re: Clear Channel Streams

well the first link streams, but it takes quite a while for it to load, and it looks like the second one is very slow to load as well. But they do both work, using mozilla-mplayer (which is actually the debian packagename for mplayer-plugin)
