Streaming Audio on iWeb

Is there any software out there that will allow you to have streaming audio through your iWeb and web server? I know I have seen sites that had live audio, but was wondering what kind of software I would need to get and if iWeb has that kind of capability.

Unable to Stream Audio

I'm unable to stream audio from a popular radio station. My old Win XP and Vista systems had no trouble. The radio station's site indicates that Windows Media Player is necessary. I'm hesitant to install anything having to do with Microsoft and/or Windows. What do I need to know? What are the pros/cons of installing Windows Media Player? Is there an Apple-approved version of WMP? Are there any other options available to me?

Hi iTunesKruzr
Some radio stations will play in Safari and other OS X browsers and some will not without a wmp?
Download and install Flip4Mac first to see if that doesn't let you listen to you favorite station?

Problem with streaming audio

I wasn't sure if this is a problem with Safari, iTunes, or OS X, so rather than post the question in all three of those forums I decided to post the question here.
I can't seem to get streaming audio to open and play when I click on their appropriate links in Safari. I tried several different links through a few different sites, but when I click on a "Play" or "Listen Now" link for an MP3 stream, a Safari download window opens and that's it -- no stream.
I solved the problem by copying the link, going to iTunes, and choosing "Open Stream" from the "Advanced" menu, and the stream played fine, but I would hate to have to do that every time I want to sample an audio stream.
Anyone know why it wouldn't work when I clicked on the direct link?
Thanks.

Nevermind. Noob figured out what he was doing wrong.
See Safari "Preferences", "Open 'safe' files after downloading".

I recently purchased an Onkyo stereo receiver with a wireless USB adapter, UWF-1, and want to stream audio from my MacBook Pro through my stereo system. The receiver tells me it is connected to my wireless LAN, but I cannot get music to play?

New to the community here, thanks for your patience. I recently purchased an Onkyo TX-8050 Network Stereo Receiver with the UWF-1 USB adapter with the intent to stream audio from my MacBook Pro to the stereo. I have gone through the setup instructions for the adapter and the receiver gives me a message saying that it is connected to the password protected network, but that is as far as I can get.
I have gone into iTunes and clicked on the "Open Stream" option, but I just get a pop up box labeled "URL" that is empty. I have Home Sharing turned on and File Sharing turned on, but I am not seeing the receiver in my Finder window or as a iTunes device.
I would appreciate any and all advice and assistance.
Thanks so much.

So I have been searching the iStore for Airplay and I find lots of information about what it is, but nothing about how much it costs, how/where to buy it, etc.?
Fortunately, AirPlay does not cost anything as it is a streaming protocol used by Apple. Currently, the AirPort Express and Apple TV are AirPlay-ready. A number of other companies, like JBL, iHome, Denon and Klipsch are also rumored to be working on AirPlay versions of their products.
Your other option would be to get an AirPort Express and connect it to your Onkyo analog or optical digital audio input and stream from iTunes that way. I currently do this with my 10+ year old Harmon Kardon HT receiver.

Facebook and streaming audio issues

I like using Facebook and stream audio from my favorite radio stations! However, I am running into adobe flash upgrade issues!!!! I can bring up Facebook but I can't run certain programs within it. I can bring up my favorite radio stations but won't let me stream audio!!!! Any solutions?

What exactly are your issues?
I had an issue where every image found on the blog template was showing up instead of the actual image that represented the blog post. My fix was to make sure of the following:
1. Blog image needs to be small in file size. Many bloggers post images that came straight off their camera and I found that the share tools will grab the most accessbile and light-weight files first. If the image is too big then it won't grab it at all. The share tool grabs the smallest and fastest loading, top-most in the code image first, which means the images found on the template of the blog.
This issue occurs at WordPress too, so it is not restricted to BC but rather the tools provided to share.
2. Try to avoid putting the image inbetween <p></p>'s, when I pulled mine out of the the paragraph format, they were found quicker.
3. Avoid having the image lead off the blog post list before the bodypreview, if you can at all just show the image on within post detail page if you can. I know that having an image in the list helps, but then just put the whole blog in the list, like WP does. Problem here is that most share tools on the list have a problem diciphering what to share, so it shares the whole page, giving everthing a share count. WP does this better. They isolate the independent listings and provide isolated share tools for each list.
Wait a week and the technology will change again.
Good news is that the element that Facebook offers to share a page on the web will be featuring the option to upload an image to accompanying the sharing of the post. You can see this happening at Facebook already when you drop in the link of the post into a news feed.
I hope this helps.

How can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

how can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

It's exactly as I stated. Whenever I try to drag these kinds of loops (ESX24 / software instrument loops? the ones marked in green with the white music note next to them) from the loop browser into the timeline a message comes up saying Audio Not Found for that loop. And a new track is created automatically when loops are dragged into the timeline, so I'm not creating some other random / synth instrument track so I'm not sure what the deal is... But perhaps I'll try creating a software instrument track first and then drag the loop into that track and see what happens - maybe there's something with the default settings that automatically creates audio tracks whenever loops are imported?

I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.
Regards.

How can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.

how can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.
I have LCD projector on one wall and connected ATV to it via HDMI.
Speakers on the other wall and connected to APXpress.

To be honest the times we've wanted to have music from more than one set of speakers, I've usually used my mac's iTunes library and controlled it either from the mac or from my phone, since they're not really the times we have any TV on anyway. I've tested AirTunes from the Apple TV but can't recall whether it worked with content from a streaming library.
Now I've got something to do.

How can I stream audio from apple tv to airport express

Hello,
i have an apple tv and would like to stream audio to my airport-express. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Xaver

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It's not possible from the Apple TV 2 or 3.

Streaming audio data won't stop unless I turn off the phone for 5 minutes.

I have been testing the Curve 8330 regarding streaming audio from an icecast server. The address of the station is http://www.AirProgressive.org, click on "listen". (I have already run this by the icecast experts and they say it is a Blackberry "bug")
BLACKBERRY USERS! PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE STREAM (dataflow) DOES NOT STOP WHEN YOU CLICK "STOP" ON THE MEDIA PLAYER! (and will continue for as long as you leave it on, and even if you turn off your BB for less than 5 Minutes.) I'm not sure if you are charged for these streams, but it seems that the battery is depleted rapidly if this continues without aborting it. See details of my testing below:
> Access icecast stream by clicking on the link on the website:
     http://www.airprogressive.org:8000/stream.m3u
> Stream consists of mp3 at 32kbps / 22050 Hz.
> Stock media player launches, stops at "Do you want to open or save the item."
    > No connections started yet (viewing "List Clients" page of icecast admin interface).
> Click "open", stream begins playing.
> Two connections are started instead of just one, always offset by 2 seconds.
    -- but sometimes only one connection starts.
> FYI, Icecast config: <client-timeout>30</client-timeout>
Here is the output from the "List Clients" page of Icecast2 Admin

I can understand that the player may continue to communicate when "stopped" to fill the lookahead buffer, but when it is restarted, it should use the same connection and not start a new one.

So, to stop the streaming server from communicating with the Blackberry handset, you must either turn it off or disable mobile network for at least 5 minutes.
It appears that the handset continues to transfer data (and therefore incur charges, if the user does not have an unlimited data plan) if the handset is not turned off or mobile network disabled for at least five minutes. It also runs down the battery much faster because the radio transmitter is actively being used, even if the user is not listening to the stream.
The Blackberry network has intervening servers that continue to receive data from the streaming server even if the handset is off. This behavior likely has utility to deal with the realities of the cellphone network, to allow the stream to be transferred from one cell to another, and deal with the possibility that the handset may be out of range for up to 5 minutes without "interruption." However, it is hard to turn off the stream.
QUESTIONS:
1. Is there a way to stop this sort of behavior using a configuration setting or something? It seems particularly stupid to start a new stream connection each time a STOP/START cycle is completed, allowing the old connections to continue streaming data (even if the data does not make it to the handset).
2. IS IT TRUE that the user will be "charged" for the data streams that are not disconnected?
3. Is there a way for a developer to send a signal to the intervening cellphone network to discontinue the orphan streams?
THANKS!!

No, I'm using something like this :
to start...
                   channel = new SoundChannel();
                                        soundPlay = new Sound();
                                        urlReq=new URLRequest;
                                        urlReq.url=mylUrl; // url of radio mp3
                                        soundPlay.load(urlReq);
                   channel = soundPlay.play();
to stop it...
                      channel.stop();
                      channel=null;
                      try{soundPlay.close();} catch (e:Error) {} // error or not, the sream won't stop.
Any idea ? Did you try with a NetStream object ?

Streaming audio apps don't work after 10.1

Since updating my Z10 and my wife's Z10 to 10.1 on Telus none of the streaming audio apps work over LTE or HSPA+. Songza, 8tracks, slacker and nobex all stop playing music after a couple of minutes unless I tell them to play again. Help please.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

is your Z10 SIM-locked? If no, can you try with a SIM card not from Telus?
Maybe you can also give Telus a call and ask them about the streaming. Do they allow it?

VLC doesn't save streaming audio to mp3 anymore

I want to save streaming audio from the internet to my HDD in mp3 format while listening to it at the same time. That worked fine when I did it with VLC, using the GUI. To be specific, here are the settings that I used:
VLC main menu: File>Open Network Stream>Open...Network>tick HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/MMS and enter the URL (http://vruk.sc.llnwd.net:12265) >under Advanced Options tick Stream/Save and click on Settings (opens Stream Output window)>Outputs, tick Play locally, tick File, click on Browse and enter filename and location for the stream saving file, i.e. /home/robert/vlcout.mp3>Encapsulation method, tick on Raw>Transcoding options, tick on Audio codec and select mp3>Bitrate 128 kb/s, Channels 2>OK, OK, to start recording. Stop or Quit VLC, to stop recording.
Two days ago I upgraded VLC from v.0.8.5-9 to v.0.8.6a-4 (which also upgraded ffmpeg from v.20060920-1 to v.20070131-1), and now the above procedure isn't working anymore. The stream isn't playing anymore over my speakers while the encoding supposedly is going on, the vlcout.mp3 file is empty (0B), and VCL gives me the following error messages:
stream_out_transcode error: cannot find encoder ((null))
stream_out_transcode error: cannot create audio chain
main error: cannot create packetizer output (mpga)
It looks as though VLC is failing to encode the stream to mp3. The VLC documentation (see http://www.videolan.org/streaming-features.html) in a table of "possible output formats for the transcoding module" says that for mp3 audio "you have to compile ffmpeg with libmp3lame support." Has the new ffmpeg v.20070131-1 (in extra) been compiled without mp3 support? If so, why? Apparently, the older version I was using last week supported mp3.
libmp3lame is installed on my system. There is a very recent alternative ffmpeg-svn-8218-1 pkgbuild in AUR that enables libmp3lame in the configure section of the build but when I try to install the package built that way it conflicts with ffmpeg v.20070131-1, and to remove the official ffmpeg v.20070131-1 I'd first have to remove a slew of other packages that depend on it.
Is it possible to remove VLC v.0.8.6a-4 and ffmpeg v.20070131-1 and go back to the older versions that worked for me? There was talk of a bug in ffmpeg in this forum at the end of January; what about it?
What should I do?

I solved the problem for now by downgrading both vlc and ffmpeg to the earlier versions that I was using before. Saving an audio stream in mp3 format is working again now.
I believe there are problems with the current versions of both vlc and ffmpeg.
1. vlc 0.8.6a doesn't seem to have ffmpeg enabled, i.e.
$ vlc --list | grep ffmpeg
VLC media player 0.8.6a Janus
whereas with the older version I get
$ vlc --list | grep ffmpeg
VLC media player 0.8.5 Janus
ffmpeg FFmpeg audio/video decoder/encoder ((MS)MPEG4,SVQ1,H263,WMV,WMA)
ffmpeg FFmpeg chroma conversion
ffmpeg FFmpeg audio/video encoder
ffmpeg FFmpeg demuxer
ffmpeg FFmpeg video filter
ffmpeg FFmpeg crop padd filter
ffmpeg FFmpeg deinterlace video filter
2. The current package ffmpeg v.20070131-1 in extra may not refer to various libraries correctly in its configure parameters. E.g. in AUR there is an alternative pkgbuild ffmpeg-svn 8218-1 from 04-Mar-2007 in which the original configure parameters were replaced as follows:
--enable-mp3lame --> --enable-libmp3lame
--enable-vorbis --> --enable-libvorbis
--enable-faac --> --enable-libfaac
--enable-faad --> --enable-libfaad
--enable-a52 --> --enable-liba52
--enable-dts --> --enable-libdts
Has the ffmpeg package in extra been compiled with mp3 support which is needed for the transcoding module of vlc to encode in mp3 format? The alternative ffmpeg package in AUR conflicts with the ffmpeg package from extra, and I don't know how to tell the new vlc to use the alternative package instead of the one from extra.
Someone ought to look into this.

How to stream audio in Windows Phone 8.1?

I have a Windows Phone Silverlight 8.0 app I want to update to 8.1 using WinRT. It streams audio in the background. In Silverlight, I used
BackgroundAudioPlayer to set the Track to a Uri. It's not clear how to do this with
MediaPlayer in WinRT. I don't think I can just use a Uri. Instead, I wonder if I have to use
MediaPlayer.SetStreamSource(IRandomAccessStream
stream). If so, I don't know how to get an IRandomAccessStream from a
Uri. I want to stream from a Uri on the internet over HTTP, not from a local file. Any help?

Refer following links to stream audio in background in Windows Phone 8.1 Runtime app.
https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Background-Audio-in-WinRT-344bcf4d
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/johnkenn/archive/2013/12/31/supporting-background-audio-in-your-windows-8-1-app.aspx
Thank you for thinking about my problem. I may be mistaken, but I think the above links refer to Windows 8 apps, not Windows
Phone 8.1 apps. I'm under the impression that background audio is done differently in Windows Phone 8.1 from Windows 8. The
Background Audio Overview for Windows Phone Store apps explains more.
It's a good overview, but does not explain how to play audio from a stream rather than a file. That's what I'm stuck on.

Stream Audio From iPhone 3GS To MacBook Pro

Is it possible to stream audio from an iPhone 3GS (playing in the iPod app) to a MacBook Pro over Bluetooth, so that the music plays through the MacBook's internal speakers?
Obviously you could just connect the headphone socket of the iPhone 3GS to the line in socket of the MacBook Pro, but doing it over Bluetooth would be much tidier.

There is a way with WiFi, but you need to "Modify" your iPhone to do it.

Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
