Subsonic Radio

I thought that I just click on listen to hear the tracks but just asks me to either save or open. My computer does not know what program to use to open the file.

Please help

Do you have a media playing program that you play music on like musicmatch or others out there. If you don't eagle4life 69 has a standalone player he made. http://www.arhynes.org/stream/me.php
Welcome to the boards and hope you post often.

most common program(s) to use is WinAmp, iTunes, or Real Player. You should just have to "open" to listen in with one of these programs.

quick quetion js, on these other programs is there any differene like do they have the playlist showing in their window? I use musicmatch, because it is my default player but just wanted to know if i should download winamp or the others.

they each (at least in my experience) will show the current song playing, and that will change as the song changes. I prefer Winamp, myself, as it's very simple to use and create playlists from your mp3s. I've been using it now for about the last 7 yearsand have had no problems at all...

Thanks for the info, I tried itunes and it did have the current song listed. I was getting tired of just seeing the I.P. address in the now playing window. I'm going to download winamp tonight.

I use Winamp, that works for me.

Winamp is your best bet.

Subsonic says use winamp!!! (Rolls his charisma check)

winamp is so much better. Thanks for the reccomendation. But the now playing site is in the window is there someway to activate activex to get the counters going?

What do you mean? But the now playing site is in the window is there someway to activate activex to get the counters going?

What is the problem or more detailed of a question? I'm so Confused

When I open the now playing window inside the browser in winamp it does not let me activate active x and the counters don't move. I get this error message: "Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly."
What settings do I have to change to have activex running as well as the counters

I would just say to set your IE settings to medium and that works fine for me

Still doesn't work for me, I run my comp through pcpitstop, and they have the settings to be like a fortress. I'll just have to figure it out.

The now playing page has some small javascript to do the countdown. If you're security settings are strict, then your browser might now allow JS
