    goto the shoutcast web page,right click on the yellow tune in buttons. Save the shortcuts to a folder....ftp the folder to your xbox. Now setup your xbox so that it's online.....goto your music section on the xbmc and look for the folder with the shortcuts. Click on a shortcut and wait for it to conect. DONE AND DONE

    I used my saved winamp M3U internet radio stations...worked like a charm. Just FTP over and load it like a regular file.

    The last thing you really want on your modded xbox is a live account. If you've used xbmc you'd know that you navigate the folders yourself, so it doesn't matter where you put it as long as you know where it is. If you can FTP to your xbox then you should be properly setup already for it to connect to the radio stations.

    Not a problem, now if anyone can figure out how to setup the weather thing for my area I'd be tickled. It's real amazing what the xbox is capable of and feels great to tap into it. It's like being told all your life that magic doesn't exist then discovering that it does.

    I've got it working with shoutcast stations, but Can anyone tell me if you can use mms. targets ?

    mms. is used for local and national radio stations, I want to stream these through the xbox. The radio stations are not on shoutcast.

    Can this be done !!
