Add a radio station

Attention:
Please r
ead the following information carefully and see if your radio stream corresponds with our technical requirements.

Please support VirtualRadio:

 



VirtualRadio plays two sorts of streams:

Low bandwidth streams: MP3, mono, with a bitrate not higher than 32kb! Streams have to be in 8.000, 11.025, 16.000, 22.050, 32.000 or 44.100kHz. Recommended are 16.000 or 22.050kHz. Please use Shoutcast servers or Icecast servers. MP3 only, not AAC!

Both versions of VirtualRadio (Java and Symbian) can play low bandwidth streams. With a low bandwidth stream 350'000 users of VirtualRadio wiht normal mobile phones can be reached!

High bandwidth streams: MP3, 64 kbps, stereo with 44.1 kHz or MP3, 128 kbps, mono with 44.1 kHz. Please use Shoutcast servers or Icecast servers. MP3 only, not AAC!

A high bandwidth stream can only be listened by users on a 3G operator’s network or having a modern phone with Wi-fi capability (WLAN)! Only the Symbian version of VirtualRadio can play high bandwidth streams. With a high bandwidth stream only 10% of the listeners can be reached!

Should you have both, a low bandwidth stream and a high bandwidth stream, both streams can be included. Just fill in the following form twice.

All we ask from you are the following promises:

I agree to inform VirtualRadio, whenever I change the URL of my radio stream.
( This is important for giving a good experience to your listeners and avoiding frustrations!)



 

I agree to put a banner of VirtualRadio on my website and to link it to www.vradio.org.
(This will make sure that your listeners know that your radio station can be heard on VirtualRadio and they will know from where to download the free VirtualRadio player. Please download the banners now!)
