The national radio streams use wmv which XBMC at least on Windows SVN19783 can play. The regional stations almost all use Real (rtsp://) which XBMC on Windows and Linux can't handle.
So going forward. I suggest that if you can't listen to Radio 1 -> 7 then get a build SVN19783 or newer. On the problem with the rest of the stations I'm looking to see if using an external player is a viable solution/hack (with the current version of the plugin it isn't as the list of live stations use urls which point back to the plugin). Watch this space.

Ah of course the infamous 'Option 3'
Will get 19783 once its out for windows, as I am unable to play Radio 1->7 although I thought they were RTSP as well? I know they use RealPlayer (well RealAlternative as I am never installing Real Player!) when I visit them in a browser?
Thanks
