HK's 903 Commercial Radio

[sir_denster]

Hey folks,

I used to listen to this channel in HK--a part of Commercial Radio Hong Kong--called 903 Chit Chat. I used to stream it online for free...

Recently (as in the past two months or so), I am unable to listen because it can't stream--an error message comes up citing server problems. Wondering if other people have this problem?

EDITED the website is: www.881903.com if you take a look, it's best to know some Chinese before checking it out.



Thanks folks!

i think you have to pay a fee now

have u recently updated ur Windows Media Player? coz i had the same problem when i updated mine to WMP11

[sir_denster]

Actually, a trick I have found to work relatively well is just continue to keep trying to connect to their server--usually can get a good, stable connection 1/10 tries, but I think it's worth it.

[~*Dawn*~]

i use a paid account so it's never really a problem for me ... well until it expires anyway...

[sir_denster]

I heard the paid accounts, actually, weren't working that well, either, because the files are on the same server as the online streaming radio--true or false?

[~*Dawn*~]

not sure... coz i haven't been visiting for more than 2 weeks now but i've never had any problems other than that time when upgraded WMP

[sir_denster]

So what did you do after you upgraded WMP?

[~*Dawn*~]

i changed my .wma default player to Real Player n the streaming worked fine from then on...

[sir_denster]

Hmmmm. I've tried Realplayer, too, and it doesn't work either...

[~*Dawn*~]

i don't have a problem with paid account.. may b the free server's bandwith just got maxed out...

[sir_denster]

Have you listened recently?

[Stephanie_Ng18]

btw, why would you want a paid account, if you could listen to the radio for free anyway? (I'm just curious)

[sir_denster]

The paid account lets you access their archives--not sure about other benefits.

[kazzaf]

you can listen if u download the toolbar

have u recently updated ur Windows Media Player? coz i had the same problem when i updated mine to WMP11

Yeah, updating to the latest WMP, most likely the version that came w/ vista should do the trick.

ive been listening to this since the start of the last year (2009) when i moved out from home and cant listen to the local chinese radio...

u either download the hong kong toolbar and stream it from there or u can on their site and click onto that little speaker icon near the top =].... will link u to the place where u can either stream it on real one or media player =]

hope it helped =]
