<div class="IPBDescription">and NS radio</div> okay, i've been hearing a lot of this NS radio and learned how to get it. i dled winamp and all and i can get the station. but now that i've got the station, it constantly skips. i get about 5 seconds of talking and then it begins rebuffering or whatever. is there a way to turn the quality of the sound down or something so it's not so bad? i managed to listen to another station on the winamp website and it worked but the quality was terrible. i have 56k, and i don't really care about the quality, mainly i just wanted to hear that interview on the 30th. is there a way to fix this, or is there no hope?

i appologize for my newbiness...

thank you! <!--emo&::siege::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/siege.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='siege.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Someone told me that 3.0 doesn't work very well, and that the older versions are more reliable. Explains why mine sucks too.

    I would highly recommend uninstalling 3.0, and running <a href='http://classic.winamp.com/download/' target='_blank'>Winamp 2.91</a> instead, for a variety of reasons. This is one of them... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    yeah, i had that problem too. Winamp 3 uses far too many resources for what is basicaly a pretty version of 2.91. They're stopping any work on 3.0 and starting on the next version apparantly. go for 2.91

    yeah i just dled and installed 2.91 and i'm having the same problem. i dunno, maybe it's just my connection. or maybe i don't have it configured right? i dunno. if anyone can help me, please do. if not, i guess i'll just have to skip out on the interview.... <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    We broadcast at 96k, so your 56k modem will be screaming in agony when you try to listen. We're working on getting a 40k stream up for dialup users at the moment.
