SILVERLIGHT DIRECTIONS

For enhanced features, please be sure you also have Adobe Flash player 7 or higher installed: http://www.adobe.com/go/EN_US-H-GET-FLASH

WINDOWS MEDIA DIRECTIONS

By using Windows Media on a platform other than Internet Explorer for PC, you automatically lose player features

NETSCAPE USERS (6.0 and 6.1) - please use Windows Media Player 9 and above, and use the controls on your computer to adjust the volume. (NETSCAPE 7.1 is no longer supported)

MAC USERS (OS 9.1 and OSX Jaguar) - please download Windows Media player 9 or greater for your operating system, then download and install Windows Media Components for Quicktime / "Flip4Mac" plug-in. Restart your browser use Internet Explorer for Macintosh, and use your volume controls on your computer to adjust the volume.

LINUX USERS - download and install both MPlayer (MPlayer-0.90) and the Mozilla MPlayer plugin (MPlayerplug-in-0.95). If you still have difficulties listening, download and install the additional codecs that are located on the MPlayer home page.

I cannot see the player artwork/video and do not hear any sound:
Your browser cannot open the embedded Media Player either because it is not supported by the browser or because your browser's security settings disallow embedded controls - If you are using IE, Netscape or a Mozilla browser, check your browser's security settings and make certain embedded or ActiveX controls are allowed.

Failed connection:
Your connection to the internet is not stable or faulty or the network delivery source is too busy or down (this very rarely happens!) Check your connection - wait a little, then please try again.

Having trouble listening while at work:
Your company's firewall or proxy server is most likely blocking it. Some companies are quite restrictive about what they allow in and out through their corporate network firewall and block outbound connections on high port numbers (>1024). This can create problems for our MP3 streams as they require outbound ports 9000 and 9010 to be open.

Stream seems choppy or keeps dropping:
Congestion in the internet... or congestion on your line? 99% of these types of problems are due to the connection speed of your computer. Try to reconnect with a faster internet connection; if using an analogue modem, use less bandwidth by shutting down existing browsing or downloading sessions. Dialup access to the internet, even on a 56K modem, is only as fast as the phone line you are using. Sometimes the connection speed is affected by other factors, which basically means that your computer can't keep up with the speed at which the audio is being sent.

For those using a dial-up connection:
Unfortunately, due to the nature and slow connection speed of dial-up, the music may not work...or it may be choppy.

Repeated failed connections:
The streams may be having difficulty reaching your player due to an unsupported or blocked stream protocol. If you are running on a network that uses a firewall, check that streaming on port 8000 is not blocked; you may need to consult your IT department support staff concerning this...
