It's better to say what error you get rather than ask how you fix the problem |
12 |
you assume you might be having. You need gstreamer and it's plugins when you |
13 |
use an app that uses gstreamer to play media. The thing you use might not use |
14 |
gstreamer. |

Having said that, the site you mention does not appear to work. I get "server |
17 |
down" errors on just about every play link. Maybe the station is barfed? |
