Default Listening to embedded audio

I have a very specific task I am trying to accomplist with my pocket pc. I wish to listen to MLB gameday audio on it. It streams off of their website and launches a media player or real player window in the web page. Is it possible to get this working on my ppc? I am runing a Sprint PPC 6600... with PIE and Netfront 3.2 as my browsers...

I have the same problem with XMRadio. The problem is that they use frames and PIE doesn't. So no music.

Flyguy42 You might be able to stream if you install RealPlayer for Pocket PC.

pivaska- I don't think it's frames that are the problem it's a java applet more than likely. I've signed up for the online trial to check if I'm correct

Right after I posted I thought I would give realplayer a shot... still no luck. The page loads up... but there is just a empty black box where the streaming audio should be.

@pivaska-Definitely a javascript problem. I got this message when I viewed the link address on my PPC, javascript:launchXMRO().

@flyguy 43-Got a link to this MLB? And will I have to sign up or register to try to hear anything?

Don't Panic..... Well, I gues that's that for listening on my PDA. Sure would have been nice though. Thanks very much for the heads up on this issue.

Yeah.. its a subscription service though. Althogh if you sign up for 4 trial issues of SI you get it for free... There does not seem to be anything special about it... it opens up an embedded WMP box on the page... But this is something I would really like to do with my pocket pc... hmmm
