Dream - on my forum I have had many people report to me that working stations that require real player are not working because they do not have it installed, and if they don't have it installed a blank screen on the right hand side appears. I would appreciate it if you could add some code that checks to see if they have real player installed, and if they don't then have it show something to the effect of "In order to enjoy this station you must have real player installed. Please click here to install it"

I hate to be a pain about this but I would really love to have the TV stations. I am running the newest version-vb board 3.6.5

Here is the message I get when I try to import the .xml

The requested URL /palaver/admincp/radiostations_admin.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

And it is correct. There is no radiostations_admin.php on my server because the 1.3 version's adminCP file is called radioandtv_admin.php.

I re did the upload and the file this .xml is looking for on my server does not exist. I must be doing something wrong but I can't imagine what.

towermatt - export all of your saved stations and then delete the hack entirely - uninstall the plugin and delete all of the related files from your server - then reinstall and import your stations.

Sounds good, I will give that a try.

I'm not sure that file will come back but I'm willing to go all the way.

Thanks for the help, I'll report back. I'm not concerned with the stations I have at all, it really hasn't caught on much for the site since its only been a few weeks. Just the defaults really.

Thanks why I want your .xml so much

Yes, I know that, but I is a very long list of categories.
It would be easier if there was some main categories and sub categories under that...

I did all of that and it was the same result. There was no radiostations_admin.php in the 1.3 upload, hence it did not exist. Also, I checked the upgrade instructions and there is a line there to delete that very file if you are upgrading from a certain version--which I think I was.

Anyway. I solved it by downloading the 1.2 version. Uploading the radionstations_admin.php file back to my adminCP folder.

It found it and now all is well. I had no idea that radiostations_admin.php was supposed to stay in the adminCP folder.

I like the idea of subcategories - perhaps Dream will add that in the next version. I do not plan on going through all 370 TV stations and reorganizing them in to different categories any time soon. However, if Dream adds sub-categories I might consider doing that. I like the idea of having Radio and TV as being the two main categories and then sub-categories within those choices, and it would even be nice to have sub-categories to the sub-categories - such as: TV/News/English or TV/News/French etc.
