Adding internet radio channels

[Noddy]

I decided to add wifi to the arcade cabinet so I could use internet radio stations but I'm having trouble adding new stations, the default ones work fine. I couldn't get the Irish station RTE working through their site but did get it working with an alternative address (mms://live1.rte.ie/wmtencoder/1516.wma)

Other channels using http://www..... I still can't get working, this one is a local sport one that works fine if I copy it into an address bar but doesn't load via GameEx. http://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/sportfm913

Any suggestions for how I can get it working via GameEx?

And am I missing something or is there no option to turn radio stations off apart from selecting a new station/song or going into jukebox and using the clear playlist option?

You have to link directly to the streaming url, not the hosting webpage. On the page you're trying to use, the url of the stream is actually a SWF object, and I don't think GameEx will work with that. Here's the full source where the url is located:

var attributes = {};
swfobject.embedSWF("http://media.perthnow.com.au/fatwire/audioPlayer/sportFM_main_0.swf", "flash-id1225872848227", "650", "280", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);

So the url you want is the "http://media.perthnow.com.au/fatwire/audioPlayer/sportFM_main_0.swf" but thats just the PLAYER, it loads the stream "flash-id1225872848227". So if you can figure out a 1-line url for that, that's all you need.
