  Hi everyone, usually I use media player script and change URL with my radio port, like this:
  [audio http://live.annashradio.com:7052/;stream.nsv|width=300|leftbg=0x00cc00|lefticon=0×ffffff|bg=0x1FFF00|righticon=0xffffff|rightbg=0xFF0000|rightbghover=×ffcc66]

  But now, when I used this script, player will be “lost” and shown this text Download: ;stream.nsv

  Any advise you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi,

  Can you reply with the blog URL where you’re inserting that?

  If the blog is hosted at WordPress.com, the audio shortcode is only supported with .mp3, .m4a, .ogg, or .wav files.

  This is my post.

  And they usually use .mp3 format.

  Hmm, I mean to play online radio (like shoutcast) not a file.

  Okay, thanks for replying with that post. We don’t support embedding a Shoutcast stream on your WordPress.com blog, and you’ll need to link your visitors directly to the audio stream.
