Hey guys i just found out about these forums and i have recently purchased a 8125 and I was trying to get streaming audio to work on the phone.
I went to one of my favorite sites www.di.fm from there when i click any of the no listen, windows media player opens, it sais that it connects but then when it goes to buffering it never passes 0% and eventually errors out

Any ideas.

Thanks

worked great on my 8125 but i have the program called pocketmusic installed
and it opened with that and played fine.

Thanks! I just checked "pocketmusic" and it seems like a good program. However, I was just wondering if there is a similar program that is at no cost that does the job as well.

I stream airarmericaradio.com with WMP without any issues.

Try streaming it with a wifi connection. If that works then it's EDGE's slow speed causing the timeout.

I had a audiovox 5600 the old version of the 2125 and was able to use orb without a problem for audio and video.

I think it may have to do with WM5. I could stream with my old SX66 with gprs and that used wm2003. My 8125 pauses in wmp.

go to test.orb.com and see if the test video can stream to your phone.

The core pocket media player is the best out there. Use it over wmp.

Use version 0.72rc1 as it has fixed some bugs specific to the omap processor

http://corecodec.org/frs/download.p...tpc.0.72RC1.cab

combine this with the aac+ codec at:

and streaming from sites listed on shoutcast should be a breeze.

Be careful at what bitrate you want to stream from. Although 128kbps sounds good, depending on how good your edge speeds are, you will probably get skips in the song while you're streaming. That's why the aac+ codec is so good, it requires only 64kbs down, but sounds like 128kps on the mp3 codec.
