Hi there,

I am new to this sort of phones and to this forum as well.
So please excuse if something wrong.

Right my question is:
Does web radio work on N95 8GB? Like say i went on to the radio website (by Wi-Fi) and wanted to listen to it. Would it work?
Or say i am in UK but i want to listen to radio from a different country, throught the website (or is there any other ways)?

Hopefully getting my N95 8GB soon.

Cheers.

P.S - sorry i don`t have a lot of time to search the threads like that. If there is any.

You can only stream online radio through real player. So if the website offers real media streaming then yes, you just put the URL of the real stream into your phones browser.

You can also stream internet radio via the built in "internet radio" application on your phone.

I hope this helps.

Cheers that helped!

But what about if there is no chioices on what player to play it? Can the link/URL be still copied somehow and put into real player or what?

Thank`s.

an easy way to add more stations to the internet radio is to go to

http://www.shoutcast.com/

Find the the radio station you want, then right click on the tune-in button, save the file to your computer and then bluetooth the file to your phone, when you open the file on your phone it will open the internet radio player and then you can save it to your favourites.

Sorry for my a bit off-topic question but it keeps coming up in my mind :con?
If i go on Wi-Fi from my own Wi-Fi Router at home, will i be charged? And if i take out the sim card and go to offline mode, will that work then?
Sorry if thats a bit stupid.
Ou yeah, my N95 8GB is going to be on 3 network.

Thanks.:redface:

you will not be charged data if you use wifi. just make sure you are using wifi though. its the equivalent of using your laptop with wifi, how would your cell company even know or care? but just make sure which network you are connecting to.

Ok, thanks.

I`ll get my N95 today evening and then i`ll write here if any problems.

Thanks for help!

Hi again,

right i`ve got my N95 8GB. Now i want to listen to radio through the internet (connected to Wi-FI) from different country...So please don`t tell me to search it in online radio. It is made for Windows Media Player. Is there any way i can get it on my phone? Or is there any program which will play radio on my phone by the link. :con? Ou yeah, when i type the link to radio in the web it display`s me an error "Not Supported".

Hope you understood me.

Cheers.
