MMS is from the steam age of the internet. MMS is a format that has not been supported by Microsoft since 2007. All these broadcaster have to do is tick a check box in their server s/w config and they will have http - but my guess they do not want to touch it. If you have a local LMS srerver - then LMS can transcode and play it. > A few countries have their best quality streams only available via a > flash-based player e.g. if you go to Polskie Radio's website and play > the streams from there it goes to an AAC+ 128k stream (e.g. > http://player.polskieradio.pl/-3[q) but I can't extract any urls that > are playable on the Squeezebox. There are WMA alternatives but these > aren't as high quality. Flash based audio or ones which hide http behind a flash player are going away slowly because Flash is not being supported on iOS and Android. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101699 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
