Fedora Users — Re: FC4 - How can I listen to radio stations?

Just to clear a few things up...

You are talking about online radio streams. Not FM. Because
RealPlayer nor many audio players will stream _alot_ of real fm
streams. Although some FM stations do broadcast online as well.

I would not really suggest RealPlayer, but it will do the job. I
again, would urge you to use XMMS. Use yum to download XMMS as I have
perscribed before. The software Mos was speaking of was for a FM
Tuner card. To use the software you would need the card, its a
hardware device that must be installed. Ie, unless you have one, you
must buy and install them, they are hardware, not software. Eitherway
with these cards, you will only get your local radio broadcasts.

Hope this has cleared up any mis-understandings...

Hello SynSyn,

I installed XMMS but, probably, I don't know how to configure it very well. Could you give me some hints about that? I think I am almost there ! ... I decided not use Real Player, since it freezes the screen.

Thanks!
