DS Misc > Stream Radio application?

#109393 - jbullfrog - Fri Nov 17, 2006 11:26 pm

Is there a homebrew app that streams radio really well?

I use DSOrganize, but it takes a while to buffer, and on top of that it only streams for like 20 seconds.

Why is the connection so weak? Is it possible to create an app that streams perfectly?

Thanks for the help

Choose one of the below options:
(A) DSOrganize uses some old version of dswifi that doesn't contain any speed improvements that have been made by sgstair or masscat.
(B) Dswifi is simply not fast enough to stream a webradio. The hardware certainly is, but the lib is not. [Additionally: sgstair shared that he will be working on the Wii wifilib once he gets a Wii (and finishes Twilight Princess -Lick) and sometime in the future future he wants to port that wifilib back to the DS. Let's just hope for the best, as he's simply a busy man just like most of us have real lives that we need to manage. Time goes by..]

But has Wii been cracked? Will there be a PassMii any time soon?

Well I suppose Twilight Princess has long enough gameplay; 2 years? (Hehe..)

DSOrganize definitely works good for steaming radio....
use this site for you internet radio links:

Use bit rates of 80 or lower.... usually works good... though the sound quality isn't ;)
