Do you use Manimod, 1.2r? If so just do this:
In your "adverts.txt" put this or edit to your liking
{GREEN}Want Live Music? Type favourites
{GREEN}Over 100 Radio Stations Available
===================================
Next in your "webshortcutlist.txt" put this underneath the existing text,
[note] edit the music urls to the sights or link/links you want, you can add multiple links underneath. I just pointed mine to the main music sight, so they could browse to desired channel.
Note: "Do not add http:// in front of urls" for some reason, the forums wouldn't let me show this correctly. :/
These two things will show up in there menu as buttons:
"Turn off Radio"
"Radio Stations"
"Do not edit this one", "Turn off Radio about:blank" , it is needed to turn off there music.
When your all done they type favourites, and they choose stations with there music button, an motd will pop up and there music will begin to play, they just close it and play the game and listen after. To turn it off ,they type favourites, click the Turn off Radio button. Enjoy
Make sure to add someting to you adverts as well to lets people know how to access it.
The best part is you do not have to update the channels in case one of them drops, we check it regularly and update channels as needed, if you have request for more genres you can e-mail me at admin@misfitmafia.com.

Whats up with y'all asking him/her to use your guys websites for music. Dual core can make his/her own.
Virtual DJ is difficult to install without any instructions, if I hadn't reinstalled Windows, I would be able to give you the readme but, I dont have it.... on the contrary, I just went through my old Inbox and I found it. Hope thats what you need to host your own music files but, do so at your own bandwidth because, it takes a lot. Also, if your server isn't powerful enough and your website cannot send data fast enough, the song will lag, (that was one issue with the program). So, try it out but if the songs lag, I would go with a radio station or the other guys that posted before me.
I know all about Reds DJ, I used it for quit a while. I hacked up the code a bit and removed the quicktime and replaced it with media player and set it to download the whole song not just stream it. I did take up allot of bandwidth but the major reason we stopped using it was for legal reasons.
This new player we have developed is not as selectable but its legal and once we launch our site, http://www.sourcetunes.com and start broadcasting our own music you as users will help develop the playlist.
Thas exactly what our player is, steaming music. It wont lag your server or use any of your CPU time, its easy to install and you don't have to maintain it either. We upate the channels as needed all you have to do is sit back and enjoy!!!
Misfitmafia, the player isn't working. I had it on my server last night and it was working great, but now none of the links are working ingame (rock,rap,dance,etc). Same thing on your server.

Thanks for providing it though, it's awesome.
Sorry about that was doing some maintenance, should be up and working now, we have some new players for DOD and HL2DM, check em out at sourcetunes.com!!!
I have finally finished the newest version of Source Tunes and completed our website @ sourcetunes.com. The new Radio Player has the same features as the old one plus an extra feature, the ability to search via google in game.
In addition you can send your clan logo to us and we will send you back a custom link, the player will then display you logo instead of the default logos that are available.
Send your logo's to support@sourcetunes.com and we will get you back a link within 24 hours.
Make sure your logo has the following attributes
1. .gif image
2. black background
3. Is 155X50 or 185X30 pixels.
For those who have never used Source Tunes its a simple add-on to you server(Requires Mani admin or Simular Plugin), you simply paste one of our links into your webshortcutlist.txt file and when players type the trigger you setup, usually "Music" or "Radio" our player is displayed and they can pick from 12 different station to listen to. The best part is it takes no resources from your server to run.
Lots of changes have been made to our Newest In-Game Player
-Upload you own logo and instantly get your custom URL
-Allow Users to Search Google In-Game
-Player displays current and last 5 played songs for each channel
-Ability to add Team Fortress 2 chalkboard background
Changes coming Soon
-Add 40+ more stations, several for each genre
-Ability for Servers Ops to add there own MP3's for users to play In-Game
And as always the upgrades require no effort for server ops, just get your custom link with you logo, add it to your chat trigger list and never have to worry about it again!!
