How can I add an unlisted Radio Station?

Asked by Michael J Moore

How can I add a radio station thats not listed in Rythmbox? WCLK Clark Atlanta in Atlanta, GA streems jazz and is available in Microsoft's Media Player but I'm tired of Windows and I'm trying to switch to Ubuntu. I like what I see!
So if you can solve this issue I would be thankful.

Open the Chromium webbrowser and navigate to

http://player.warpradio.com/WCLK-FM/player.asp?id=2338&bitrate=0

Easy.

If Adobe Flash is not installed yet, run this command in a Terminal:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-addons ubuntu-restricted-extras

The player in the link above will only work AFTER installing Adobe Flash...

You can listen to other radio stations using a webbrowser and Flash via these links:

http://warpradio.com/
http://radioloyalty.com/

But there are a lot more ways to listen to the radio in Ubuntu...

This was just an example.

I also suggest installing guayadeque using this Terminal command:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install guayadeque

This radio player updates information about 5931 radio stations. Hope that is enough? :-p

Can you help with this problem?
