[GTriderXC]

I'm using 11.04 on two mashines and have the same problem. However Natty
is some kind of Alfa release so I'll first switch back to 10.04 and when
the support is over and thins will go the way they do I'll switch to
Window$ ;(

Title:
  Problems with opening radio stream

Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm facing a problem and am not sure whether to report it as a bug.
  Banshee doesn't open my favourite radio station as easily as for
  example Audacious does. The radiostation is
  http://www.dnbnoize.com:8000 and the problem that I have to push
  "Play" button several times to be able to hear the audio stream. The
  radio starts mostly after second attempt. My Internet connection is
  fast enough and as I wrote the problem doesn't exist for example in
  Audacious. Sometimes I have to click "Previous" or "Next" button to
  start the stream (that especially after hibernation or suspending-
  Audacious keeps on playing smoothly also after these two operations).
  Mostly when I click the Play button the program is "Connecting" and
  then switch itself to "Idle". Then I have to click "Play" once again
  and with a stroke of luck the stream starts. If it does not I have to
  click "Play" a few more times cause usuallly every next click ends up
  with "Idle".

  I'd also like to ask whether is it possible to just click the "Play"
  button in a system tray which will play my radio as a default the same
  way Audacious does so that I didn't every time have to: open Banshee,
  click on "Radio", click on my radiostation on the list and then fight
  with the play button as I described above.

  I'm trying to switch to Banshee because of the interesting integration
  with Ubuntu but if things keep on going this way I'll stay by
  Audacious.
