Hi Barry,

 Thanks for your reply.  I followed your instructions.  I 
 hit enter on the
listen live link and then the listen live Real Player link, and it
didn't work.  Maybe they cut it off here, I hope not, though.

 I tried it with Jaws 8 and Window-Eyes 6.1 and got the same 
 result with both.

 Would other people on the list in the US please try it?

 Thanks a million.

 Audrey

Re: can't hear radio 1

I live in Chicago and didn't find the UK restriction on the windows Media 
link.  I used Replay A/V to capture all the URL's generated by the Windows 
Media stream when played using the BBC iPlayer.  When I opened:

mms://wmlive-acl.bbc.co.uk/wms%5Cradio1%5Cradio1_nb_e1s1

in Winamp, Radio One played, using winamp's Windows media codec.  it took a 
little getting used to hearing a host speaking American English on the BBC. 
I've listened to the World Service on shortwave for years and am now 
sampling all BBC stations on the Internet.  For those who aren't aware, the 
BBC stopped shortwave broadcasts to North America.

 Hi Audrey,

 If you are a JAWS user (it is probably similar with other screen 
 readers):

 1. Open the Radio 1 homepage at http://bbc.co.uk/radio1

 2. Go to the Listen Live link and press enter.  JAWS doesn't make it 
 clear that anything has happened, but some additional links
 then appear.  Two links are:

 Listen live | RealPlayer

 Listen Live | Windows Media (UK only)

 Here in Australia, the RealPlayer stream works, but as stated, the 
 Windows Media stream does not.  I've no idea why one can listen
 with RealPlayer outside the UK, but not with Windows Media player.

 Regards,
 Barry Chapman

 Hi All,

 I used to be able to listen to BBC radio1, but now when I click on the
 listen live link, the machine goes ding and I get frustrated because 
 I
 miss the chart show on Sundays.
 I live in New York City, so maybe the British government cut it off to
 those not living in the UK.

 Can someone send me a direct link? Or perhaps, there is another way to
 access it?

 Thanks very much.

 Audrey

RE: can't hear radio 1

Hi Audrey.  I don't listen to Radio 1 (I've grown up LOL).  I have just
tried their site and I also couldn't get to listen live.  However, I went to
their text only page and the link was there and it worked fine.  I think
the problem in part is the BBC are using a new player (I player)  They did
use real player at one point but it seems each time I visit a BBC site
(usually world service or radio 4 or 5) it is usually the I player they say
is being used.  Hope this is of some help.  Walter.
