Shut down radio that played in winamp when not at the computer for specific time?

Aeat · 29th July 2006, 11:51

I sometime hear radio with winamp (soma.fm radio for example), and I want the radio to be stop after some time that I'm away from the computer.
There is a way to make the radio stop after some time of inactivity for preventing wasting the radio bandwidth?

Thanks,

you can use alarm clock plug-ins to go on and off at certain times.

i don't think there's one for detecting inactivity.

See if your firewall has a setting to block an application when the machine goes into screen saver.

Winamp will play out whatever is in the buffer before stopping.
