Can anybody try to stream Shoutcast in Winamp and report back please? (including Rom using)
I know I can have shoutcast with other apps, but I wanna find out why Winamp takes forever to connect to stream it, and I tried different roms.
So is it me only or it just doesnt work on Epic?
Thanks.

u need a rom that has streaming media.. most of the WM6 roms have streaming media.. I had that problem until I upgraded again to WM6.. now it works fine..
I also found that streaming media doesn't work for me straight off - I have to tell it which connection to use by going into it and then into options. Once I did this, it worked OK
Smiffy.

help me, i face the same issue!
It seems like the basic music player doesn't support streams, there doesn't appear to be any support in windows media player for streams either...
In the end I searched for some tools and GSplayer came up as supporting streams, so i tried that and copied the CAB install file to the storage card, it showed up in the start menu...I can run it and open a URL or local .pls file and it starts to stream...you see the percentage buffer quickly shoot up to 100% but then nothing happens...no audio, nothing.
I'm basically trying to play audio from an internet radio station I use a lot at home (xfm.nl) if you click "Luister Live" on the left you'll see shortcuts for all the streams.
Can anyone help? My settings are OK I think, I can get to the internet and recieve my email and use all the web based apps, so I don't think its a connection thing...maybe GSPlayer just doesn't support the HD2?
Try Skyfire browser.

I have WunderRadio but since you know the stream you want to play coreplayer will open it.
I just tried this using Skyfire and GSPlayer.
I clicked on the Winamp mobile link, and it downloaded the .pls stream to my storage card. GSPlayer opened automatically. I've set GSPlayer to own .pls files, so maybe that would help.
Just tried clicking on the downloaded .pls file and it also opens up GSPlayer. Hope that helps! At least you know that it can work
I want to know something fairly similar, is it possible to make a player stream a song or file instead of having to download it first. Sometimes with very large files I just want to play it and let it download as it plays instead of waiting for the entire file to download before being able to play it.
Try Groovemobile or nanogroove.
I just upgraded from a Touch Pro 2.
I have a few shoutcast .pls files I used to open and stream in coreplayer 1.3.6 build 7427 with no problems.
I have changed from o2 to orange but all other streaming seems ok (e.g nanogroove/groovemobile/youtube/myplayer etc).
On the HD2 when I try to open the .pls files I get an unknown file format (0106) error or sometimes coreplayer just crashes.
Anyone know how to get coreplayer working with there files again?
I enjoy accessing last.fm using the skyfire browser.
Try SPB Radio, pretty good!
I just wanted to thank everyone posting suggestions, I will be trying some of them out soon
There is also coreplayer which handles .pls and .m3u file attachments.
While listening to music, i recognise a short crack or lag everytime I lock or unlock the screen (and only then, otherwise I didn´t experience any lags during playback).
The only time it worked flawlessly was with the stock ROM and HTCs stock music player. All other music players I tried after that had the issue, even on the stock ROM.
I also tried the MoDaCo Custom Donut ROM, now I am on the spqrom 0.6 I found on xda (FroYo, Cyanogen based) - still experiencing the same problem with all players (tried PowerAMP, Cube3, Winamp and almost every other player out there...)
Can´t find anything on the forum or on google, any suggestions?
Those cracks drive me crazy! Please let me know if there is a music player/ROM/system file hack out there that can fix the problem.
I'm using HTC TatFroyoSense v0.2 (WWE edition), no lag
Thanks for your reply. Do you use the stock HTC (sense) music player? Did you try any other players like winamp etc.?
I used to keep my Ipod Nano in my car hooked up with an Aux cable but my Ipod's screen died so I ripped all my music from it onto my hard drive with different folders corresponding to different playlists i had set up.
I remember setting up playlists in the default android music app but they disappear everytime i flash a new ROM.
Ideally, I would like a music player that is able to use the playlists I have setup in Itunes but I do not mind making playlists again as long as they save the playlists on the SD card.
Anyone know of a music player that saves the playlist on the SD card so if I have to hard reset, i dont lose the playlist?
Thanks
Hey, this might be something you're interested in.
The app Audiogalaxy allows you to stream audio to your phone from wherever you setup the server.
You just download the app and download the server from the website and you can use whatever folders you set up with the helper.
I have access to all 60gb of my music as long as I have a data connection streams great. : )
Winamp... Also, if you d/l winamp on your computer you can sync it with itunes and your itunes playlists. then you can also sync your phone with winamp. At least I am pretty sure that's right.
Sweet, I will try these out after work!
I like the sound of this. I'll try it out now
I like stock Samsung player,but if you want something different i recommend DoubleTwist-its nice looking,simple and has streaming.
You could try the MiUi music player found here on xda.
Sent from my always stock, froyo Epic
Use Meridian. You can back up your playlists using the Play Q tab. Simply export your current playlists to the play Q. You can export the play Q lists to the regular playlist tab after flashing new roms. I love that feature
Also with winamp, you can push your music to your device over a wireles network, no cables needed!
CM7 ON MY EPIC!
RE: best music player with playlists...
I've tried a few music players and have to agree that Winamp is really good (and free). It just got a update and I think improved it a lot. The playlist function is really well done. I'm going to have to try the wireless transfer. Thanks for that tip!
Mortplayer. Its the bomb completely customizeable.
cd's or tapes?
Hi guys, my Vega will be arriving this week, since it will be always on the same network as my PC, is there a way to play music or playlists stored on the PC to the Vega (will be running Honeycomb)
I would prefer the playlists to be on the tablet so the wife can set some up rather than her going to my PC to do anything.
cheers
You can try Google Music Beta. It Uploads music to the Google servers, and you can play it anywhere, anytime

I'm in the UK, there's no Google Music here
I'm in the Netherlands Ever heard of proxy servers?
cheers, but can it stream music from my PC?
The easiest method is to use CIFS Manager to create a link to your PC share and just open the files up using any Audio player. PowerAmp is the leader for playing music but personally I found it to be a pain to setup. Give it a go with setting up the share and if you come across any problems post them here and I'll see if I can help out.
Good luck!
I agree with using CIFSmanager, it works very well for streaming video and audio to your Vega. However, when i tried it couldn't get Poweramp, winamp or the default player to browse to the share (even if it was mounted in /sdcard) so in the end I used MortPlayer Music. It's not the most pretty interface but it works well until one of the other players adds support for browsing CIFS.
cheers guys, much appreciated
I know that being a thread necromancer isn't cool or anything but maybe someone really wants to stream audio/video etc from PC like a boss.
