This mod is "Re-usable Code", meaning you can modify it and release your own version.

You are responsible for the streams you add to your website. The mod author doesn't take responsibility for possible copyright infringements in some countries and with some stations.

Arabic and Chinese don't work with Ajax, so this mod won't work, sorry.

=======================================

Post ideas for improvements and they may end up here.

Planned features for next version 2.1 (note that the features are my wish list, and may not be feasible so they are not final)

- on/off switch for each station info
- [s]check if Radio and TV text on navbar is hardcoded, and make it not[/s] it's not hardcoded, it's the phrase "rs_radiostations"
- make a system where admins can add they own players (don't forget support for flash, embed and object, just let them add the whole code with replacement variables)
- hide profile info if no radio has been listened or no favorites
- put javascript in a .js
