Thomas

I would like to ask a few questions about this and learn a few things
on mimetypes and Apache Server setups running Icecast streams. Is the
mime types for the .htacess file located in the root directory of your
hosting site for your webpage? or is the .htacess able to be placed in
the actual folder hosting the page running a player of a Icecast
stream?

I have a few instances of players

http://dlradio.org

a template I found that uses a java flash player

http://dlradio.org/scottsdesk.net_hosted_webs/dlradio.org/index-tim-html5.html

a html5 player with java that uses a java flash player fallback.

http://dlradio.org/scottsdesk.net_hosted_webs/dlradio.org/index-tim-javaflash.html

a java flash player..

My only issues ran into are some not able to play the stream
in my custom players, however the direct link works. This makes me think its a
issue with mimetypes.
