THREETEN RADIO Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I am on there also but I think an iTunes link is a .pls file which is the same as winamp so I have not bothered. I get quite a few listeners using iTunes on my stats so that is by their listing only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronsnet Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 .pls needs to be used ... and I would suggest not linking directly to the .pls on your sc server...instead linking the tune in link listed in itunes to a .pls hosted on a different server, which points to ur sc server. this way if you have to change sc servers, you don't have to notify itunes about the change.

jkemr Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Lost me now :( plus how do i find out what the .pls file is for itunes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qmr Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 There isn't one for Itunes, There is a .qtl which will open Apples Quicktime player but .pls will open the end users default player for mp3 streams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaronsnet Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Put this into a file called tunein.pls [playlist] NumberOfEntries=1 File1=http://192.168.1.1:8000 Title1=Radio Station Name Length1=-1 2. Replace the http://192.168.1.1:8000 with your sc server address, etc. 3. Upload the file to your web site. 4. Send the link to the .pls file to iTunes.

Ruby Tuesday Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 If you could find out what the iTunes network protocol handler is (if it exists) then you should be able to have a link that opens the file in iTunes. Otherwise, .m3u works in iTunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THREETEN RADIO Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 A .m3u file will normally open in the users default player as it is a universal format. People will find you on iTunes, they do me as my listeners have gone up. I have seen you listed on there under the pop genre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen you listed on there under the pop genre. so true my listeners have shot up too people using itunes dont have to go to your site to tune in they just load there itunes and press the radio link and choose a gerne but i find itunes users dont really get involved in your site eg: forums, chatrooms, shoutboxs etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
