Audio streaming

[adsl3g]

I need/want to stream SA radio stations on the iMac - Flip4Mac does not work. Media player for mac is a stuffit file - what can I use to install it?

Stuffit files are usually best opened with Stuffit Expander (which comes pre-installed with all macs).

Any radio stations in particular that you're having probs with?

Basically all radio stations on antfarm.co.za

I have managed to expand the .bin file to a .sitx file but now don't know how to further install it.

EDIT:
ther eappears to be no option to use stuffit to expand the file on Leopard and the app costs $79...

Open the .sit with with stuffit expander (again) - it should be doing this automatically for you

OK, I see there is a free version - will try that

OK, Windows media player installed but still no streaming audio.

@Bwana - does yours work? I want some local radio stations - iTunes just give American stations.

5fm works (via flip4mac) and they say that uses antfarm.

Installed that 2 but still no audio.... (wonder if a restart will fix it?)

open quicktime and try opening the following url (+U) - http://www.antfarm.co.za/clients/5fm/5fm_22.asx

Thanks - appears that was the problem, Windows media is now streaming Highveld. the 'Launch' icon at ant farm does not work, copying the URL and pasting it into WM and it works fine - will try quicktime as well.

Ok - what browser were you using?

Tried Safari and FF... Have put my listening stations as favorites now so working fine..

Wonder how long my cap will last with 4 hours of streaming per day?
