I've read a large chunk of text on making strm files for live stream channels such as NHK WORLD and even using an alternative like xml, but none of the methods are working for any of the links either which i've copied and pasted or tried to make myself.

I dont know if its the script itself which is wrong in the text document or its location on my desktop but either way xbmc doesnt want to play the file.

Believe me I would rather be able to read an post and do it within 5 mins than start a new thread but nothing seems to work.

Update: I just tried a link I copied from another post and it worked "mms://live1.wm.skynews.servecast.net/skynews_wmlz_live300k".

but when i try to add this one it fails every time. I've tried to add it as a continious line and separate like it is below but nothing...

rtmp://175.41.168.21:1935/2e2cd playpath=nhkworldhd.sdp swfUrl="http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/r/movie/fivecool_player.0.3.6.2.swf" pageUrl="http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/r/movie/" swfVfy=true live=true

This will work

Code:
<item>

<title>NHK World</title>

<link>rtmp://ny-1.srv.fivecool.net/nhkw/_definst_/gwm swfUrl=http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/r/movie/fivecool_player.0.3.6.2.swf pageUrl=http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/r/movie/ swfVfy=true live=true</link>
