I went over to aolradio.com and selected Edit in Notepad here for one of the
XM channels and there's a bunch of urls in here. Thinking that it would be a
good strategy to find the url I needed to open in Winamp, I did a search for
m3u and pls and found nothing in the file. Which url are you supposed to use to
play the stream in Winamp. There doesn't seem to be an obvious candidate for
the address to copy over to play in Winamp in this file. I picked a couple of
them and removed the quotes and what looked like some other preliminary stuff,
but it didn't work. Maybe it's a necessary part of the url? How should I find
the correct url to copy over?
Thanks for any advice.
Evan

Hi Ivan and all, you can open up either a .m3u or a .pls file with note pad,
and get the address of a stream that way, but related, is a problem I'm having,
and that is, I thought I remembered that there was a branch of the on line
media tree-view that dealt with xm stations, but now, with winamp 5.13, there
is only 30 stations total in the winamp library, so, are the xm stations
included in the shoutcast radio streams, or are they another branch of the
tree-view, because all I see is shoutcast radio, and shoutcast tv, and I
couldn't do any search for any xm stations what so ever, so if a o l is cutting
back on the xm streams, that is a shame, but at least, I got to hear the
Jackson Armstrong tribute, though, I didn't hear any stuff from the west coast,
and we should have, since he was out here.

I'm not sure how you find them. I got the list of about fifty or so from
someone whom I believe is, or was at least, on this list. You can go to aol.com
or the XM web site and play the stations, but they use a special player for
that. I think there's a way to get those stream addresses out of the
stand-alone players and into Winamp, but I don't know how to do it. I hope that
is still possible, though, and that I can learn how if these addresses change
at the end of April. If they stop playing them through AOL, it's a sure bet
that they will.

Here is the address for the Sixties on 6 channel as copied directly from my
Winamp Bookmarks file. I assure you it works, having just tested it. It's quite
long, though. I've isolated it with a couple of blank lines around it so as you
can copy and paste it with confidence. <smile> I also heard Armstrong in
Pittsburgh in the mid 70s on a station called 13Q. I have heard few -- if
anyone -- who could talk so fast, or so energetically. I wonder how much coffee
that guy drank, or was it something with more stimulating power? <grin>

Where? You didn't give it in that email, you just said "Here it be". Then you
had all your information after that. Pam.

Hi all, maybe I'm out of touch, but I'm using winamp 5.13, and need the
address, or the .pls file for xm sixties, if it is still on winamp,
because we lost a legendary disk jocky on Saturday named Jackson
Armstrong at age 62, and Terry Young will do a tribute to him tomorrow
on xm sixties, on his show from 1 to 6 pm, pacific time, or 4 to 9 pm
eastern, or from Thursday, 20 to Friday morning 01 u t c, and once
foofling with the winamp 5.13 library, I could only find four entries
under the oldies portion of the combo box, and I have put the number of
entries under manage views to 10,000, so maybe an appropriate question
would be, is xm even being offered in winamp anymore, because I don't
have a receiver or anything, and my existing uvox file didn't work, so
if somebody has the current address for the xm sixties and seventies
streams, if they are still available in winamp, it would greatly be
appreciated, as I only found 30 total entries in the winamp library,
and thanks in advance very much, but I wanted to hear this tribute to a
legendary talent, Jackson Armstrong.
