Any WM software to stream this particular radio station?
 
Trying to stream WAJR-AM out of Morgantown, WV to my Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 (running MalRom 6.5.3). I'd include the URL here but ppcgeeks.com says I don't have enough posts to include links (so much for being a newbie LOL!). Will tell you that "liquidcompass" and "silverlight" are part of the URL so perhaps it's an issue with one of those two components.

I can access WAJR's online stream fine on my desktop browser (IE or Firefox). However, trying to access it thru Opera 10, Skyfire, IE, etc. on the TP2 gives a "URL not found" error. Tried WunderRadio but it comes-up with an error message "Can not play URL" (actually most of the stations I tried accessing thru WunderRadio came-up with that error message).

Big bummer is I used to be able to access WAJR on my old Touch Pro running NFSFAN's TP Rom using his custom Opera build. Simply having no luck now on my TP2 (I even installed NFSFAN's custom Opera build on the TP2 but it gave me a URL error too).

Anyone have any ideas on how to access this particular radio station on my TP2?

I tired it on Kinoma for you (which pulls their listings from tuned.mobi) A lot of their nationally syndicated shows may be accessible via the stream from another station though. I'm in Alabama, but routinely listen to some nationally-syndicated sports shows from a station coming out of Texas because my station's stream only streams their local shows and has dead-air for the syndicated shows.

Grogck... did you have any luck accessing WAJR with Kinoma? I don't have that software but I'd look into purchasing it if you were able to access WAJR's stream through it.

I want that station's stream for their local programming -- not the nationally-syndicated stuff. WAJR is in Morgantown, WV where West Virginia University in located. WAJR serves as the flagship station for all Mountaineer Sports programming, so that's the stuff I'm really after!

If WAJR's stream could be played over Windows Media Player, I'd be in good shape. I think it's the fact that they're doing it through this "liquidcompass.net" that's giving me the problem that I don't have an answer for :-(

Have you tried a media player like TCPMP or Pocket Player? Here's what PP says:

>>>>>
Pocket Player can stream Internet radio from any MP3 (Shoutcast), Ogg (Icecast), or ASX (Windows Media) source. Use the Menu > Open > URL from the main screen to directly enter a URL for streaming. Alternatively, the media browser features a Web Guide command that links to several Internet radio directories as well as a searchable list o Shoutcast stations and genres.
Note that desktop Internet radio station websites that use a Flash‐based player will not work when entered into Pocket Player. The Open URL screen expects to receive the direct URL to the radio stream, which is usually hidden from such sites.
<<<<<

Since you had success with TP, the Flash warning seems to not apply, unless the ROM you had happens to somehow provide Flash support. Anway, PP has a 30 day free trial version ($20 to purchase) here:

Mr. Goodtunes... thanks for the reply. I'm at work now so I'll have to wait until I get home to give Pocket Player a try. Will do that though and see how it works. Very much appreciate the recommendation.

As far as I know, the WAJR radio stream does NOT use a Flash-based player, because like I said, I was able to access it on my old Touch Pro through NFSFAN's custom-version of Opera 9.5 which -- to my knowledge -- has no Flash support.

No joy on PocketPlayer :-( It simply won't play the URL for the WAJR stream. I'm on my 10th post now and ppcgeeks requires that I have that many to post any type of URL, so I'm throwing away this post and will post the URL in my next post...

OK, here's the WAJR-AM streaming URL...

http://den-a.plr.liquidcompass.net/s...pe=silverlight

If anyone can get that to load and play in ANY Windows Mobile software, I've got a case of your favorite beer, my firstborn child and my never-ending gratitude to offer LOL! Seriously, I'd be very appreciative if anyone can help... this has got me stumped bigtime :-(

Try a program called URL Sniffer. It will detect the actual URL were the data is coming from. I used it for 105.7 the Fan in Baltimore which uses a web based player.

I tried the link you gave on Kinoma, Pocket Player, Core Player, & Resco Radio. None worked. I went to the WAJR site and tried to pull the pls from the listen live button. However, this is one of the many sites that want you to listen to their broadcast in a stand alone window player. I am curious how you got the url. I have requested from other sites the actual pls, which you can edit through note pad to pull an actual url that will play in any of the softwares I listed above.

So, 1. How did you get the url? 2. How did it work in previous phones you had?

gprimr... googled URL Sniffer. Took me to a site with tons of programs for ripping and recording streams. These all appear to be desktop apps though. Are any of them for Windows Mobile? OR are you saying to use one of these programs to find the actual URL and THEN just plug that into WMP on my TP2 and access the radio station that way?
