Heya guys, I'm trying to stream radio from a website but although the flash player says its playing I cant hear anything. I have a suspicion its my mork blocking streaming media so was wondering if there is a way around this?

what operating system, browser, and version of flash are you using?
XP Service Pack 2, IE7, Adobe Flash Player 9 Active X (not sure if this is what you need - let me know where I can find it otherwise)

Cheers!

have you tried the actual stream link?
http://stream.upfm.dj:8000/upfm_mp3_128.m3u

That should play in something like VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) (VLC is brilliant, plays pretty much anything.

Oh and are you at work behind a proxy or at home just on normal jetstream?

I can listen to it fine at work, but it wouldnt work through the free proxies I tried.

You might just be SoL

Confirmed its ok for me at home too. I suspect because its running on port 8000 is where the trouble lies.

If you really wanna listen to it i guess the best bet is to restream from home on a normal port - 443 or something.
