    with video widget you can add flash video streaming so why do we not yet have a audio only like a shoutcast stream  ???

    you can actually create a video player widget which doesn't display the video screen and use an audio stream URL to power it. Just use the advanced video player and make it look like an audio player.

    .m3u isn't a stream, this is a generic playlist file and therefore is not the correct format.

    I still do not seem to be able to get this to work. I am not sure if I am using the right stream. Does anyone have an example of a stream URL they have used to make this work? here are all the stream urls that I have tried without any success.

    http://69.13.198.186:8088
    Winamp: http://sh3.audio-stream.com/tunein.php/jsoren00/playlist.pls
    Windows Media Player: http://sh3.audio-stream.com/tunein.php/jsoren00/playlist.asx
    Real Player: http://sh3.audio-stream.com/tunein.php/jsoren00/playlist.ram
    QuickTime: http://sh3.audio-stream.com/tunein.php/jsoren00/playlist.qtl
    Web Proxy: http://sh3.audio-stream.com/proxy.php?stream=jsoren00

    This is a shoutcast stream. Any help is appreciated. If I can get this to work it will be super helpful.

    Thanks again

    Still no luck here. i always wanted a streaming audio widget using kickapps widgets. But it still has not worked for me.

    Wish it was easy as inserting the stream url and it starts working. lol im still here and waiting patiently however. :)

    Hi guys,
    the only streaming that Flash supports is RTMP. This is for both video and audio, so if you are loading an mp3 over streaming it will always start with rtmp:// or it isn't made for Flash streaming.

    I took at look at ShoutCast and it appears they are loading music using regular progressive download. It looks like they may be doing something fancy like continually adding to the file on the server as its being downloaded as I haven't seen the download ever end. Because they don't have a flash crossdomain.xml policy file in place that would allow our players to load their files directly our players fallback to using our server side proxy to make the request. Because the file request never seams to technically end, the proxy never returns and the player just hangs.

    I can't suggest a work around for this except to ask shoutcast. They may not want 3rd party players loading their content. If they would add a crossdomain policy file like this: http://www.kickdeveloper.com/api/index.php/Using_a_Flash_cross-domain_policy_file_when_hosting_your_own_feeds_or_widget_assets to their server their media should work in our players,
