Bug Description

I tried to listen to a live radio feed, and it won't work.

I've tried konquer, opera, seamonkey, and firefox 3.

I have realplayer, and all plugins for flash...

the window displays perfect for stream but no audio.

this worked before I upgraded to ubuntu 9.04

can't find any help on the web. really stuck.

www.nj1015.com listen live displays correctly, but no audio.
http://www.howtotuneaguitar.org/ the Tune-O-Matic Freaks out in a loop

However, sites like www.wmmr.com live stream fine for me.

The only way for me to get the top two sites to work properly is to use
Windows Firefox under Wine

@kb2tfa

Those sites are Flash sites. Could you please uninstall all but one of the flash plugins? Please let us know which one you end up with and if it works.

@Locked Down

I would suggest opening a request in the Answers section of the site. That site link you posted doesn't seem to want to work with anything but Internet Explorer, but someone might be able to get you going.

I'm having problems with http://www.last.fm/listen/artist/Imua/similarartists#pane=webRadioPlayer&station=%252Flisten%252Fartist%252FImua%252Fsimilarartists

Before I upgraded, I could listen to it but then it would stop. Now I can't listen at all. However the adobe flash video works, youtube.com works.

- Please try to install ubuntu-restricted-extras package as it installs more codecs.
- Installing totem-mozilla package is a good idea too because it includes browser plugins for streaming media.
