Listening to Internet Radios
- Some Internet radios use the rtsp:// streaming protocol. VLC supports this, but Amarok does not, because the Xine engine has no RTSP support yet (although it seems to have basic support for *some* RTSP implementations according to a Xine bugzilla entry).
- Until suppport has been implemented in Xine, use VLC rather than Amarok (or other applications based on the Xine backend) to listen to Internet radios. Amarok works well with HTTP streaming.
- Amarok however support WMA format / codecs. It is the streaming part that causes troubles.
