VLC
The followinf method makes it very easy to play any given Stream into VLC and decode the raw stream. To find out the raw stream preform the following steps [1].
This can be a rather daunting task, use Firefox for best results.
For example with BNR Radio, the steps look as follows:Open the website, at http://www.bnr.nl/
- Find the link "Live Radio", this opens a pop-up window
- View source of the pop-up window an look for the <object> element.
- Find the param element with name "url" and copy its "value"; this should be a full or relative URL
- In this case it looks like: http://streams.kpnwebcast.nl/cgi-bin/reflector.cgi?stream=kpnmms_bnr,kpnmms_bnr2&title=BNR.nl+live+radio
- Paste this URL in Firefox; you will get a simple ASX document in return (note: this looks "empty").
- View source and select one of the URLs starting with mms:, for example mms://213.75.12.51/kpnmms_bnr
Finally, create a text file which looks like this:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0,BNR live stream (transcoded)
#EXTVLCOPT:sout=#transcode{acodec=mpga,ab=192}:standard{mux=raw,url=,access=http,sap,name="BNR live stream"}
#EXTVLCOPT:ttl=1
mms://213.75.12.55/kpnmms_bnr
