"Live Dispatch" streaming audio problem
 

I am trying to use WinAmp to play live fire dispatch audio from a website. The URL is;

mms://68.186.235.33:8080/

Windows media player is able to play the audio, but WinAmp is not.

Any ideas on why or what I need to do to configure WinAmp to work?

Thanks,
Bob

However, you're in luck... because this particular stream also supports http protocol

http://68.186.235.33:8080/.wma

This works perfectly fine in Winamp 5.01

Thanks!

If you like to listen to online scanners,
you can go to Shoutcast and type scanner in the "search for" box, then click "go".
The scanner streams are hidden from the preset genres list.
Right now there's 6 pages.

(just in case you didn't know :D )

Great source!
