upload this resultant .m3u file to your webspace, and link to that from the link you want to start the stream (eg// link to http://www.yourwebsite.com/audio.m3u), this should work, at least in winamp.
Hi Mate - recognise your id from overload forum.
Thanks for the advice - I have tested it with a straightforward mp3 file, wmp seems to pick it up ok, I presume whatever program you use for mp3 should kick in automatically?
