Title: Want to add page where radio is streamed
Post by: ddabcd277 on October 19, 2011, 05:53:01 AM

Hello,

I want to add a page where online radio is streamed (.ogg file). Anyone knows a ready solution. I have seen it on other forums and was wondering how it is achieved.

Excuse me if such topic is already answered.

Many Thanks,

If you just want to have an embedded player (letting each browser handle it accordingly), then create a page and add this code to it:

Code: [Select]

<object type="audio/ogg" data="{url_to_stream}" width="200" height="20">
  <param name="src" value="{url_to_stream}">
</object>
Change the width and height to your liking.

If you would prefer to use your own Flash-based player, try FFMP3 (http://ffmp3.sourceforge.net/)

The flash-based player might be a good idea, as I'm not sure how well all browsers support OGG.
