Experiencing
Problems?
If you are experiencing problems opening up and listening
to the audio archives on the BBS Network, it could be due
to your using Windows XP and MS Internet Explorer as a browser.
As we use a Lame 64K 44,100hz Joint Stereo MP3 Format, Some
Browser versions do not understand the audio codec being
used. Therefore, when trying to open up the archives with
their browser you may get a 404 Error Page, or it just won't
download/open.
The
FIX!
Try LOGGING IN at:
https://www.bbsradio.com/bbsradio/member.php
Once you're logged in, you will see a link to take you to
the archives. Click it to go to the main archive page and
then locate the name of the radio program you want by clicking
on to the host's picture, for that particular program. Once
you're on their archive page you'll see a flash player and
a download link. RIGHT CLICK on the download link, which
then should give you a drop down menu. Select "Save
Target As". You can only do this with IE Explorer.
Once the audio file has been downloaded onto your computer,
double click the mp3 file and it should play normally, as
it will engage your default audio player.
If you are using Mozilla Firefox and wish to download the
audio files, you must be logged in. Upon being logged in,
go back to the archives and right click on the mp3 link,
and then "Save Link As". This method only works
for Firefox.
Using an Apple or Mac Computer? Are the audio files playing
too fast? Try downloading QuickTime
media player. That should solve your problem. It is
PC/MAC compatible. When you click on download
mp3, once the program is installed,
it will open up the audio file in a separate
window and start playing the mp3 automatically (Quicktime
must be either defaulted to play mp3's or have the preferences
set to play mp3 files. When you install the program, it
should default to play mp3's.) |
