Playback Limitations of Internet Radio Streams
SoundBridge currently supports MP3 and WMA Internet radio stations. RealAudio and AACplus stations are not supported at this time. However, stay tuned for additional formats that may be supported in future software releases.
Unfortunately, there are few standards in Internet radio (especially for MP3 stations), and sometimes a station will do something out of the ordinary that will prevent SoundBridge from being able to play it. See our online document at www.rokulabs.com/support/internetradio. php for more information.
Discovering More Internet Radio Stations
Our online user forums have an active discussion dedicated to helping SoundBridge users find good Internet radio stations in a variety of genres. Visit our Forums (accessible from www. rokulabs.com/support) and look for the discussion topics related to Internet radio stations if you would like to find more stations in a particular genre or would like to suggest a station or offer help to others on this topic.
