DAAAAAAAMMMMMNNNNNNN!!!!!! i love it...!!! the other radio station was about to be scrapped on my site... but you have just revitalized my member's hopes....thank you!!!

Very nice, this will be great for my site. thanks.

edit: when you say users can delete stations, could a user come along and delete all the stations so there will be none left? or is it only for them?

Maybe usergroup settings would take affect on that :)

Nice, this is what I have been looking all over for, thanks.

They can edit / delete just the stations they added.

Wow excellant mod

Just thought of a good addon for this, dunno if it's possable though...

Very cool modification.:up:
Do you know how much traffic it cost?:confused:

Ah thats a good point lol

I'd play it allday and check back at this time tomorrow with an update..

Bandwidth (this month) 126.05 Megabytes 12th July ( With radio on )

Wooow! clicked Installed & Nominated & Voted! [although I will try it later, after work LOL]...
You know? I was looking for someone to do this for my board, the minimum was $350 USD, but if you add an Ad System, we can recover some $$$ for the bandwidth... Got the code...

Does uses Quicktime/RealPlayer/WinAmp?

Can I just authorize paid subscribers [sorry, I'm more a bizman :P]

Thanks! great-great-greeeat!

OMFG - I've been waiting for this mod since vBRadio 3.5.4 days!
AWESOME - installing now! Thanx soooooo much for this one!

Jacquii.

Installed, nominated, and rated 5/5. Thank you so much :)

Groovy man!

This is awesome but your promoting it short calling it a radio station addon :) It can be used to stream live TV and other TV streams to your users.

Granted it needs some work (doesn't adjust the windows to fit the video) but heres a few to try.

Theres loads of streams too so your always going to be able to offer some real media experience to your members.

I agree - This modification is the best thing that's happened to vB in a long time - since Living Avatars and NoSpam! :p --- Definitely a must have! Nominated for MOTM! Excellent Excellent modification! My Members are going to ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS - and may even make it for Premium users OR have some function available for my Contributors and VIP groups that regular Members don't have!

AWESOME addition - I'm so very happy about this release!
VERY NICE WORK DREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Question - What is the javascript.php for - It's in the download folder - but the is not included in the instructions - or did I miss something?

At anyrate - THANX SO VERY MUCH FOR THIS!

Jacquii.

Ohhhhhhh im likin this VERY much TENKSSSSSSSSSSSSS............

Its only radio...Installed in 5 mins....great!!!! members can boogie and browse all in 1..excellent

voted for m/o/m/ and rated 10/10

lovin it

DEMO

I was going to ask the same question... but I looked in the product XML and that entire javascript.php file is in the product XML, so it's not really needed, I guess.

whew... what a day today! :)

Installed. and MOTM!

and by the way... any options to disable some of them... coz it is counting 26 queries. hehehe

You can add indian channels if they are compatible with Windows Media Player.
Just Windows Media Player. There are no permissions to listen to Radio Stations, just to add stations.

You can donate that $350 for me if you want ;)
You can use this for TV streaming if you want. Just a little edit in RADIOSTATIONS_PLAYER and RADIOSTATIONS_STATION_TABLE templates to make the player bigger and you are set.
Thank you :) the javascript.php is a leftover from development, I forgot to remove it from the zip file.
Well I didn't give much attention to making less queries because the main page is not heavy duty, it won't be opened that often so it's ok.

The bandwidth the user uses is of the streaming provider.

Thx Dream, looks nice. But option to import vbradio stations would come in handy. I tried this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=92470

but it breaks up with errors when trying to export stations on vb 3.6.7

I will try this sooon. :)

Thanx ;) --- I sorta figured as much - too lazy to browse the XML LOL

No prob! Thanx for this modification - I'm so stoked about this one!
Really appreciate you sharing it with the Community = Excellent EXCELLENT share!

Jacquii.
