Unable to broadcast a non mp3 stream - Airtime Support Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Jim Cosmas

Hello all. This is my first time on the forum so forgive me if I am posting incorrectly. I am unable to broadcast a stream that is not an mp3. I have several hosts that would like to broadcast on my station but I am unable to use their stream because they are using a flash player. Is there a way to be able to carry their stream?

Thank you in advance

Jim

normally you can find the real name of the stream tey use into the code source of their pages

search .mp3 into the source code

Thank you Albert. I was able to get the real stream name for several of the shows and it works perfectly. The only one I can't seem to get to work is the following: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/computeramerica/2014/01/03/computer-america--january-2-2014--loudnoises-news.mp3

The error I get is No MIME type found for webstream.

Here is another example of another error I'm getting from the following stream I entered which is a prerecorded podcast: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/computeramerica/2013/12/22/computer-america--december-20-2013.mp3

The error is: Invalid webstream - This appears to be a file download.

It is not a stream from a streaming server. Its a file on a webserver. The error message is correct.

This was why I wrote a remote file importer for Blogtalk. If RSS is enabled in the Blogtalk Account I can import programs automatically.at a given time interval. The code is in the Airtime Hacks Section (2.50) It might need modifying for 2.51. I have not uploaded my 2.51 version.
