Hi guys!

Is there a way that after being listed in the live365 directory, I wish to keep the link on my webpage, but i dont want their stupid window to open, neither their player setup. Just like shoutcast, the media player should directly open winamp or the user's default media player.
Please let me know the magic trick to directly open the default player of the user. Right now I use shoutcast to broadcast, and am doing just great, its only that my listeners are increasing and i need more capacity, thus wish to use live365's free relay service, but dont want their funny window open neither their player set up which puts off new visitors and newbees.

Any help will be really appreciated.

Thanks!

Okay mate, I can tell you this. I do this as well for NexMix.

Go to http://www.nexmix.com and take a look on how it has 2 links on the sidebar of my site (Low Bandwidth, of course).

Right-Click, Save As

Place these files in your HTML directory on your page. Before uploading them to your site, edit each file in Windows Notepad or Pico. Where you see my Live365 URL, change it to your Live365 URL.

Link those on your index.html page and that should help you out.

There ya go mate! Hope that helps. Also send me props on your page if you want... ;)

Later Days,

Chris
