guys, i am unable to play any shoutcast on my amarok!!! i even download the pls file from shoutcast and open it on my amarok, and amarok tells me it is playing the stream but then i hear nothing!!!

what am i doing wrong! my amarok runs on teh arts engine and i dont have amarok-gstreamer installed, simply cuz i cant find the RPM for suse!!!

plz help,
kr.

Gstreamer RPMs for SUSE

Guru also has Current amaroK RPMs (normally newer than SUSE\'s KDE Supplementary ones).


Although I should note I\'m stuck on the arts engine at the moment because both xine and gstreamer cause amaroK to crash when I try to select them. I think, however, that\'s a problem with my system and not in amaroK, just haven\'t had time to hunt down the problem.


As for Shoutcast... copy/paste this URL into amaroK and see if it plays (known to work on mine): http://www.hardrockin80s.com/80.pls

May not be your style of music, but it\'s just to test. It\'s not shoutcast, but if it works, then it\'s a \"just Shoutcast\" issue.

If that doesn\'t work, \"Save link target as\" on the above link, and copy/paste one of the individual URLs for the streams into amaroK. If that works, it\'s a playlist issue. (Shouldn\'t be a problem, works for me.)

If those work, then test
http://shoutcast.com/sbin/shoutcast-pla ... lename.pls

I\'ve verified that one to work on mine. If the HardRockin80s link works, and this one doesn\'t, then it\'s definitely a \"Shoutcast\" stream issue.

in my system shoutcast works, but i can\'t store any radio i\'m listening,because there is no the tab where find all the function for organize playlist and stor all the informations about the streams,
why?

i have the last rpm version 1.2

and furthermore, some beta release ago the streams tab appers normally at the left of the GUI hmy:

Ooom, of course you can store streams. Just save the stream playlist in the Playlist-Browser. Right-click the "Current Track" item to save it.

:woohoo: ok... I tried to do a thing like that but after some minutes the stream disappear from the playlist, and in the \"last song played\" there is only mp3 and not streams
why amarok can\'t no more load a list of all streams to click\'n\'play them happily??
