I have been asked to look into this as there are several Alty fans who would like to listen to Radio Robins on their Android based phones & tablet PCs.

The following instructions aren't as complicated they look   

- On the Android device, download and install the Shoutcast Client app from the Google Play store (free)


Setting up the Shoutcast app for Radio Robins can be done anytime  - a broadcast does not have to be in progress.

- Go to www.radiorobins.com

- Select and hold down the Direct Shoutcast Link Click Here, then choose Open

- A file called listen.pls will be downloaded

- Select that and open it with the Shoutcast Client when prompted

- The address http://176.31.101.181:8116/ will now be shown as an available station.

This routine only has to be done once.


When Radio Robins is broadcasting...

- Start up the Shoutcast Client app,
- Choose the RR address
- Start
- Enjoy the match 

I successfully tested this during the last match and it worked well on both wireless and 3G mobile internet connections.

Hope this helps someone. Any questions, please ask.

If it doesn't work then reverse the polarity of the neutron flow!

Is that for the commentary only, or is the chatroom there as well?

[PaulClementsLaments]

Its the audio only - the chatroom should work using the Android web browser though

I downloaded the .pls file ok and the URL is now listed in the Shoutcast client but if I try to start it the client crashes.
Not sure if that's because RR isn't broadcasting or if my client is nadgered.

RR has to be broadcasting for the client to work.
