Hi Stefan, Yes the included audio example works fine on both Linux and Windows using the "drums.mp3" file included with the gadget and also with mp3 files from other online locations (ie. an mp3 hosted on a server). It's just Shoutcast streams it doesn't seem to like!
When modifying the audio example to point to a shoutcast stream (the encodeURLComponent function has to be removed too for it to work), the gadget does seem to open the stream, but the "play" button remains in the pressed position and although my machine is recieving the stream, it never produces a sound. If left for a few minutes, I get a notification saying that the gadget has stopped responding. I think the problem might be due to the stream not providing a content- length, but that's only a theory at the moment! If you have access to a Windows machine, you can try this yourself by modifying line 19 of the audio example main.js to: var AUDIO_CLIP_URI = "http://212.72.165.26:9418/;stream.nsv";; It looks like I'm going to have to go down the Windows Media Player route for now, but if there's a solution that enables me to use framework.audio I'd rather use that.
