How do I change music?

How do I change the station? What other choices are there?

[Alwin Alcott]

you can change it in two ways:

manually in "about land"

or

with a scipted device, mostly called radio, or any other name asociated with music control.

This last has mostly already stations added to it, sometimes outdated so won't all work anymore, but it's easy to find new ones, for example at shoutcast.com

...and now that you know how, here is a way to find Music URLs that you may want to hear.

Take a look at www.shoutcast.com to id stations that are playing content you want to hear.

Then Lets say you want Nature Sounds...

Go to

http://www.shoutcast.com/radio/Nature

Pick any MP3** stream link and right-mouse click on it. Select the Save target as... ????.pls to your desktop. Open it with any text editor. Inside you will see something like the following:

[playlist] numberofentries=1 File1=http://88.80.200.195:8000 Title1=(#1 - 13/80) stream.silent.li organic relax radio: nature sounds Length1=-1 Version=2

The Land URLs is the http://....at File=1

In this example http://88.80.200.195:8000

Good Listening to you!

P.S. ** It's important that you pick a station broadcasting streaming MP3 because the FMOD service that comes with SL only recognizes and supports this method.
