You may have to get someone to look at it for you Tom; under "View" then "Options" it has LOTS of areas that can be changed, and format options, etc. Post a link to one of these audio files and see what it does for me. -Clint God Bless, Clint Hamilton, Owner www.OrpheusComputing.com www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com www.OrpheusComputing.com/most_reliable_cheapest_webhosting.html www.OrpheusComputing.com/office/computer_accessories.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom" I considered VLC but Media Player Classic sounded like a better choice. It seems to be connecting almost every time I try an audio stream. It seems to get a little flaky if I close it without first closing the stream. Fortunately it has a lot of keyboard commands, control-c to close the stream, alt-x to close the program. Alt-F4 is the standard Windows keyboard command to close a program however closing Media Player Classic again seems a bit flaky when using it, so alt-x works just fine.
