Streaming Audio

---

Anyone with a quick fix to get streaming audio to continue playing after a sponsorship message/ad plays first? Both my WMP and RealAudio players work fine generally for streaming audio on the Tilt .. but on one particular site (KQED San Francisco) the site insists on playing a short sponsorship/ad message first, and then the players error out before playing the actual stream (I don't have this problem playing the stream on my laptop).

I am hopeful there is some setting I can adjust.

[you can click on the link I embedded above to see if it works on your device]

if you edit the file with note pad you get

save the file and you should be good to go.

I tried the solution posted above, and while the edited file works fine on my PC .. it does not run on my WMP. I edited the file, saved it to my Tilt, and opened it with WMP ... I just get an error message.

Any other thoughts?

I use tcpmp 0.72 rc3 and have no problems playing this stream...

Thank you for the link! This the only version of TCPMP that runs on WM6.1-Kaiser. It even has all the plugins installed, including AAC support! Thank you, guys!
