How To: Internet Radio On Xbox 360

Posted by Anthony on Saturday July 19th 2008 at 15:28.

So picture this, you think to yourself "oh man, the DHA show is about to start, but I just got this new 360 game I want to check out". No longer a problem - now you can listen to Three Radio on your Xbox 360, from the dashboard or in-game. All it needs is a program installed on your computer and you're good to go. The only drawback is that your computer needs to be on when you want to listen.
Obviously it works with other internet radio stations as well, but this tutorial gives you the details for the best one :)
The program you need is called TVersity and is completely free. Read on for the quick tutorial on setting it up.

  1. Download TVersity from www.tversity.com


  2. Install Tversity



    A few moments later...

  3. Configure TVersity


    If you don't want TVersity to start when your computer starts uncheck the box. TVersity can also be used to stream your photos, music and videos to your Xbox 360 as an alternative to using Windows Media Player. If you don't want it to do this uncheck the three boxes at the bottom as well. Make sure that the firewall option is checked. Then click configure.


     
    After this you will be taken back to the installer and asked if you want to install codecs, check the box and click through the installation for the codecs. [Note: I'm not actually sure if you need to install these codecs for Three Radio to work, I wrote this tutorial whilst installing it again myself, best to install them just to be sure]. Once this is done you're ready to start using it.
    [Another Note: After the installation had finished even though I checked start the server the program didn't open, so I had to go to the start menu and open "TVersity Media Server" from the "TVersity Media Server" folder. If this happens to you, once the program is open right click on the icon in the system tray and click "Start Sharing".]
  4. Add Three Radio
    With TVersity now installed you just have to add the link to Three Radio then head over to your Xbox. To do this click the + sign in the main window.


    Put the following details in:
    Type: Internet Audio
    Audio URL: http://shoutcast.themediadudes.com:9034
    Title: Three Radio
    Click the Advanced button and select Transcode: when needed



    Then click submit. [Note: If we're off air you may get an error here, if this happens just try adding it again when we're on-air]
  5. Listen
    With TVersity setup and running, you can now go to your XBox 360 and listen.

    To listen in the dashboard:
    Go to the media blade and go to music


    Press X to change the media source. And select "TVersity on [pc name]"


    Go to songs and go to three radio, click on it to play


    To listen in the guide (in-game)
    Its the same process just in a different place. First press the guide button and go down to select music

    Go to "Tversity on [pcname]"


    Go to songs
    And then go to Three Radio


    Click it to play
