Because my N800 is Nokia Entertainment series internet tablet
I have compiled (by hand) a .m3u playlist of internet music television
streams (to entertain myself) which work for my N800 OS2008
mediaplayer (72 streams at the moment). Most of the streams are
direct streams or at least streams which content change quite often.
I included my playlist file as an attachement. I had to add
the .txt file type to the playlist otherwise I couldn't attach it. Just
save the attachment file without the trailing .txt part (the last part
of the file name should be .m3u )
Music streams are from several sources all over the internet
and often I had to find out the mms stream part because the
mediaplayer didn't understand the original .asx stream.
To find out the content of the stream I either saved the
stream file (usually .asx) and opened the file in text editor and
copied the stream address (usually mms-address) or
opended the stream in the VLC media player (Win XP) which
usually showed the true stream address (usually mms-format).
All of these music stations should be readily available in
internet and public transmissions and as far as I know
legal to play. I used the .m3u playlist format because it
is the most used and very simple playlist format.
The playlist has the following format:
station name (ordered by this field), country, stream width and
height (different clips may use different values), bitrate and
homepage address and of course the stream url. Of course you
don't need width, height, homepage information to play the
stream (you can remove them if you like using file editor - .m3u
files are ordinary text files) but I thought you would like to see
those too. I don't know if you could make homepage clickable
internet link but at least you can see the url in mediaplayer.
Feel free to use my personal playlist wherever you want.
Just save it to your tablet (without .txt part) and open in
OS2008 mediaplayer (sorry, shouldn't work for previous
mediaplayers because OS2008 has improved MS streaming
format support - although mplayer plays most of these streams too).
320x240 streams should play the best. Some streams stutter
a bit and a few streams play only the current part of the
stream (If you open the same stream in Windows mediaplayer
it continues to play but obviously OS2008 doesn't understand
all of the internet stream formats - mms is proprietary format - and
occasionally plays only part of the stream. If this happens just
restart the stream).
