About

This is a reference implementation of HTTP Internet Radio streaming (Shoutcast) for S60 2nd and 3rd Edition devices. It is intended primarily as a learning tool for the S60 developer community. We also hope to stimulate the creation of innovative S60 audio applications.

The S60 Internet Radio reference application is a fully working example of an audio application developed for the S60 platform. The application supports SHOUTcast streaming audio playback. Currently, MP3 and AAC+ streams are supported.

The application also supports local playback of audio files in the following formats: MP3, AAC, eAAC+, MP4, M4A, WMA, 3GPP, AMR, and WAV. Note that some formats may not be supported on some S60 products. This is dependent on the codecs that are available on specific phone models, and is not a limitation of the reference application.

Source code. The file includes sources and build files for the S60 2nd and 3rd Edition SDK's. There is also a separate design document that describes the design of the application at a higher level.

If you just want to install the player on your S60 phone, you can find program files and user instructions here.

As reported in the S60 Multimedia blog, Petteri Kangaslampi has ported this application to Nokia Series 80 Communicators.
