[SW] Internet radio for Ubuntu

Rhythmbox was the software I used to listen music and internet radios. Due to reasons I don't understand, Rhythmbox does not work properly for the internet radios anymore, and I've tired to find out the solution. I started to search possible alternatives for me to listen internet radios. Firstly I found Exaile and it looked good, but I didn't get its plugin (shoutcast radio) work.

Finally, I found Tunapie. I installed it and Stremripper via Synaptic. After the installation, I set the audio player as VLC in Tunapie's preference, then everything goes well. :-)

(But Hot 108 Jamz station cannot be played... Orz)

[SW] Rhythmbox and Quod Libet don't play music

I have used Rhythombox and Quod Libet for listening to music, podcast, and internet radio. But I didn't listen to music on my PC for a while, and these days I encountered a problem when I used Rhythombox and Quod Libet to open my music files. Both of them cannot play the ogg files. I tried to remove and reinstall them, but it didn't work.

Finally, I found a post from ``rhythmbox : does not play the songs at times. When I click play song, no response''.

So the solution is to change the sound setting to ALSA. The problem for me now is that I don't remember why I changed the sound setting to PulseAudio...
