Internet Radio is supported through the WinAmp Shoutcast.

Find your station on the internet. Below are a few sites.

Click on a link and just save it to your computer.

Now this file replaces the the normal MP3 audio files. So where ever your Audio content is...
Lets say on your d drive. Now in 'd:\ehome\audio' create a folder (called 'Radio-Whatever') or what ever type of music it is and copy the just downloaded file to this folder.

Run the Admin, go to Audio and select the folder you just created. Click edit. Now edit the title genre and remeber click the Inet radio check box. Save and restart you Audio servers.

NOTE: Do not open this file is WinAmp. Just save it to your disk.
NOTE: When trying to play Internet Radio, if you see a 'Open Dialog' box go back to the Admin and edit, you forgot to check Inet radio check box.

Users have reported that the newest versions of Winamp are not working for Internet radio. A WinAmp rollback to version 2.95 fixes this problem.
