The default N73 File Manager application won't let you access the
C:\shoutcast\ directory - you'll have to use an alternative File Manager
such as SysExplorer or Y Browser.

http://www.pushl.com/y_browser/

I've got it working fine on my N73.

Downloaded and installed the S60 Internet Radio & the Shoutcast Engine apps
from the opensource.nokia.com website onto the memory card, then went to
www.shoutcast.com and downloaded a few station pls files. Can't remember if
the app created the shoutcast folder or not, but as long as its labelled
'shoutcast' it should work fine (Iits NOT a capital S at the start of
shoutcast).

The pls files from the nokia site didn't work for me, but all the ones from
www.shoutcast.com have been fine. I tend to use the aac or low bitrate ones,
I've got the following working: dutch XFM dance stream, KissFM Romania,
Megamix Radio, Generation Rock Radio, Mix24 FM, XStream Old School Jams and
Club977.

You can create your own pls file as long as you know the http address, the
file should be in the following format.

[playlist]
File1=http://64.236.34.97:80/stream/1040
Title1=CLUB 977 The 80s Channel
Length1=-1
File2=http://64.236.34.97:80/stream/1074
Title2=The Hitz Channel
Length2=-1
File3=http://64.236.34.106:80/stream/1011
Title3=XStream Old School

File4=http://213.189.2.188:8100

Thanks for the help guys, The bit I was missing was the directory has to be
on the mem card

I said the folder needs to be called shoutcast, never mentioned what the pls
files need to be called.

The S60 Internet Radio only allow shoutcast links at the moment, don't know
if theres plans to add to this, but hopefully helix
(https://helix-client.helixcommunity.org/projects.html) will launch their
all in one media player in March 07, fingers crossed.
