The MOD Station

Oh cool! I just heard my favourite composer Tim Wrights "funeral" from SOTB2.

Has anyone heard the remix to "Forest" from Immortal? Simply amazing!

Is that the gameover music ? If you like that tune this might be of interest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-qaW2mLEsA (wasn't sure since funeral is a tune in sotb3).

another alternative for "module" recordings as mp3/ogg is my interface at http://www.exotica.org.uk/wiki/Special:Modland - many formats tunes are streamable (encoded in realtime).

btw the modstation asx playlist didn't seem to work for me on windows. the pls was fine though. could have been a config issue i suppose although this was a vanilla windows 7 I had installed for testing.

I am a mac user and listen to the Mod station all the time.



First copy the link from the winamp link (http://cast5.serverhostingcenter.com/tunein.php/jotayl00/playlist.pls).

Then download VLC player from http://www.videolan.org/

Then open VLC and then select 'file' and 'open network...' paste the link and you are tuned in.

You can also use this method with quicktime player

Did all that and VLC complains 'Your input cannot be opened', and the error log shows:

main debug: net: connecting to 199.16.186.42 port 8611
main error: connection failed: Connection refused
access_mms error: cannot connect to 199.16.186.42:8611

Any ideas?

it's http not mms afaik. try opening http://199.16.186.42:8611 - works in mplayer for example.

The versions I am using are all the latest updated versions for intel osx snow leopard. I would not know about previous version I guess you just need to play about and try.

For media playing in general, if you want it to just work, use mplayer:

its called "the movie player"  but with codecs it plays everything and it does it well.

It seems the station is dead now. Connecting to the stream results in "connection refused" error. The site http://themodstation.org contains no more than "Account suspended" message.
