Title: How can I change the radio station to Radio 2
Post by: Wikky on August 16, 2010, 09:09:49 AM

I'd like to be able to select another radio station apart from the preselected ones that come with the programme. Where do I find the codes? ::)

Hi Wikky, just google the station you want  ;D , I think this is radio2:-      http://bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r2.asx     Just copy & paste it into an empty preset box   ;D

That doesn't seem to work Steve. Funny thing - it won't let me type the numbers 1,2,3 or 4 in that space where the radio code goes. I had to do it by typing the address in 'Word', and then copying and pasting it. Still nothing. The Earth logo flashes as if it's searching but nothing found.

Wikky, it does work my friend, I've tried it on 2 diffrent PC's now with success, you are probably just typing it wrong ( Dont know why you are typing it manualy in word?)   just hilight the URL in my first post with your mouse and then right-click and choose copy, then put your mouse in one of the empty preset boxes, right-click again and select paste.

Job done  ;D

If still no-go,  go back to main screen and reject anything playing and click the preset button again.
Have another go and let me know how you get on..

Upon further investigation I've found that the BBC radio stations do play with JBP but there is something odd about the stream (i think they may contain other information), they seem to play ok until you make a music selection, they then inject other bbc tracks or stations & random tracks into the playlist ?, very odd.

Interesting, I will investigate this further over the week-end.

For now I would stay away fromm the bbc url's until I've figured out whats going on.

Ok

I found out whats wrong,

First the bad news:-
the bbc streams contain information about other streams etc & commands that will send JBP crazy.

The good news:-
I have extracted the correct stream for you, ive tested this and it works just as it should, copy and paste it (its too long to type)
