"What do you
mean I don't need an iPod to listen to a
Podcast?"
First and foremost a Podcast is an MP3
file and all you need to play it is an MP3
player. There are multiple 100's of Millions of
MP3 players out there - They are called
computers. With the help of FREE software such
as
iTunes or
Quicktime or
Windows Media Player - You are already able
to listen to a Podcast. You only need an iPod
or other Mobile MP3 Player if you want to listen
to a podcast while you are working out, driving
to work or taking the dog for a walk....

Streaming Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
-
How do I install
iTunes?
iTunes is
now compatible with both Macintosh and
Windows. Either click on the iTunes link on
our
Listen Online page or go to the Apple
site's iTunes download page at
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/.
This page has information about system
requirements.
-
Can I listen to
your mp3 streams with Windows Media™ Player?
The newest versions of Windows Media™ Player
(7.0 and higher) on the newer Windows
operating systems (2000, ME, XP) should play
our mp3 streams. (But we have not always had
good luck.) Windows Media Player 6.4 on
Windows NT will not. If you have one of the
new versions but can't get your player to
launch when you click on the .pls or .m3u
links on the Listen Online (link) page, cut
and paste one of the URL into your player:
In tests so far, we have not had any luck
getting the Macintosh version of WMP to play
our streams. If you have better luck, please
let us know. You can download Windows Media
Player at
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/default.asp
-
How can I listen with
other players?
If you have a different player from the one
above and it doesn't launch itself, try
cutting and pasting the address into the
location, open stream, or other URL entry
area of your player.
-
When I click on
the links to listen, my player doesn’t
launch. What should I do?
Whether or not your player launches
automatically depends on how you have
configured your personal system and whether
or not you have designated a default MP3
player.
In
iTunesClick on "Advanced" and choose "Open
Stream". Type one of the above URL's in the
"Open Stream" dialog box and click "ok."
-
Why is the stream
cutting out and rebuffering?
If your computer is not receiving the stream
data fast enough, you will experience
drop-outs and rebuffering. The rebuffering
occurs when your computer tries to catch up
with missed data. Many times this is caused
by Internet congestion or insufficient
bandwidth. It can also happen when you try
to connect to a stream that has a bit rate
that is too high for your modem or
connection speed.
If you’re having a problem with rebuffering,
make sure you are using the stream that is
best for your modem or way of connecting to
the Internet. The 24kbps stream is
recommended for 28k modems or faster. The
64kbps and 112kbps streams are recommended
for cable modems, ISDN, DSL, and T1
connections. You can also try deleting
temporary files, clearing memory cache, or
rebooting your computer.
-
What do I do if I get
a message that asks me if I want to "save to
disk" or "open file from location?"
Choose "open file from location."
-
Why can’t I
connect to your stream?
There could be several reasons. Make
sure your player(s) are installed correctly.
Also, if you’re listening at work, you may
be behind a firewall that won’t allow
streaming. It is also possible that we’re
having a problem on our end and the stream
is down temporarily.
-
I want to listen at
work and may be behind a firewall. What
should I do?
Ask your system
administrator or IT department to open port
80 and port 8000 which support audio and
video streaming.
