Hey everyone,

So my roommate and I are trying to figure out how to get the blasted radio to work, and aren't having much luck. I've searched the forums but can't find anything newer than 2007 posts. I know that in game you type radio /play 'URL'. Sometimes this works and sometimes they don't? Is it because links are down? Do stations like exile radio, machine radio, awakened radio etc... still exist? Is there an upto date list of stations that work?

Saving faves... man, this is complicated. Ok so I know you type /radio addfaves 'name'|'URL'   Right? or you can created the .txt file in the directory the same way. But ok while trying to save or even play a station, a lot of the times it gives me an error... like windows media player can't recognize... invalid media... unknown player media...

Can someone help? Is there some small, stupid thing I'm missing? Maybe if someone has a faves list that they know is all working if you could copy the .txt file on the forums and I'll just copy and paste or something....OH and my god- if anyone says is because of windows vista or windows media player 10 I'll die!... Knew vista was a bad idea lol.

For an easy way to get online radio stations to work just play one in winamp and then make a playlist. Then just add the playlist to your favorites in game and you're set. The problems you are having could be due to the fact that the stations aren't online at the time. Also it's /radio addfave name|file location/web address

Detailed instructions can be found here MxO Radio Guide

The .txt file is named mpfavorites and is in The Matrix Online folder (wherever you installed it). It is easier to edit manually than /addfav in game. Here is an example of a radio station that I had saved:

APOC|http://theapoc.com/listen.asx
TheX|http://thex.fm/listen.asx
RMC|http://www.mxoresource.com/listen.asx

For something current, I would try entering Catzi radio. She has a party coming up this weekend and i am sure will be broadcasting.

Once you are set, you open the radio in the game and select a station using the drop down arrow menu.

Hope this helps.
