Re: Clear Channel Streams

I can tell you how to do it. there a a few solutions. Some stations are offered directly through Radiotime.com otherwise they have every show imaginable. They also havea mobile interface but that is tedious (details on that at the end) The best soltuion I've found is:

Stations: If you want a station itself and they do not boadcast from their own site in straight WMP then look on radiotime.com. If the have the windows logo sign then it is likely possible. BUT you have to enter in their mobile stream access which is:
http://wma.radiotime.com/Stream.asx?...tationId=12345 into browser or into WMP>Library>Open URL . Then you need to find the station's ID which can be found by scrolling over the Station link at radiotime.com and substitue it for the 12345 above. If they have a WMP stream it will work if not see below.

Shows: However if you are looking for a certain show then you want to find a station with that show and try that station id like above during the broadcast. Sometimes I check a few but generally if thay have a windows logo next to the station it streams on WMP.

In cases where you want to listen to a station and above does not work then you can download URL Hunter (links below)and run the live stream from the stations website. It will find the actual URL wich can be pretty long. Genreally I copy this into a word doc onto my SD card then click on the link from my phone and it works. Sometimes I need to replace the link with HTTP instead of rttp. However these streams have an authorization which can time out after a day or so. Then you have to sniff out a new url with an updated authorization.

It is sometimes not as easy but it works. Radiotime is pretty good. They actually ave a mobile interface but it is GAY: http://radiotime.com/mobile/index.aspx you can try and look up stations on your mobile but the interface is so stupid that it is easier to enter that inerface into your PC browser and search to see what stations they have. What I find is that it doesn't have them all listed for sure. That is why I offered the steps above.

URL Hunter is at http://mini-stream.net/url-hunter/ It has a free trial that works for these purposes. It does not seem to have any adverse effects on my computer. I did have some problems running it on Vista not sure onthat. But no malware spyware that I have experienced
