This is probably a java client issue. You will need to make sure you have the latest java plug-in updates. NOTE: A lot of XP disks do not enable or install java by default.

You will also need to make sure you have installed your current service pack for your operating system. You may need to do this before installing the newer version of java. See similar questions...

I would really like to spend a day or two and write a formal doc on how this works. But the skinny is that for every x bytes (specified by the meta-int HTTP field) Shoutcast servers send the track data. If the track hasn't changed it sends a NULL byte. If there is track data you'll get a number > 0, which is the length of the meta data divided by 16. The multiplier is so they can fit the size within one byte. The meta-data field has two fields "StreamTitle" and "StreamURL". See similar questions...

The radio stations which stream their audio would have made a decision as to what format of stream they were going to use. Currently there are 3 major formats: Windows Media, Real and MP3. Each type of stream is different and needs a specific program to process it -- Windows Media streams need Windows Media Player to play them, Real streams need Real Player and MP3 streams need Winamp -- in some cases MP3 streams can be played by Real Player.

If you have been given an offer for a combined degree then at enrolment time you will need to choose your Engineering stream. See similar questions...

You aren't supposed to be streamripping anyway, this is a radio service, not "rip your tracks here" service. We are legally supposed to discourage recording of our radio streams. With that said, there are too many programs out there and we don't know which work or do not. However, we do know that there are many streamrippers which attempt to open a concurrent second connection, which makes our service enforce the "one connection only" rule as mentioned in above questions.
