For a long time I used streamripper successfully to catch certain shows on our very own Toronto station, Jazz91 FM (CJRT). A few months ago the address (http://streamertheta.jazz.fm:8000) stopped working, and for the life of me I can't figure out how to identify a working stream from the station, even though it's possible to play it live over the web. Any ideas, suggestions, or even addresses?

This is a shoutcast stream. I've been able to stream through some playlist definition changes using VLC by redefining the XML PLS file. Haven't tried any shoutcast fishing tho. http://wiki.winamp.com/wiki/SHOUTcast_2_%28Ultravox_2.1%29_Protocol_Details Hope this helps.

Looks like they are using something called cirrus encore for streaming which does quite a bit of javascript to try and detect add blockers before allowing access to the stream. So perhaps if your javascript skills are good enough you can untangle that spaghetti and find something. Nothing obvious stands out that's for sure. Maybe they desperately need to make some add money to stay alive. -- Len Sorensen

Try this: http://206.223.188.175:8000/stream If that is what you wanted let me know can break it down so you understand where that came from :) Aruna
