Hello,

I'm trying to listen to archives of a radio show off the hosts website, however, when I click on the link it tells me I'm missing a plugin that it can't find. Is there anyway to do this on the xoom? The site is...

http://www.cigardave.com/theatre1a.html

Scroll down and you'll see a list of all past shows that I'm trying to listen to. Would greatly appreciate any assistance on this.

Thank you.

I am assuming you have flash. If not, get it from the market. If not then it probably needs an extra browser plugin and might not work.

EDIT: Just tried, I have flash and no dice :-\ Sorry

It's an MP3 file using an embedded player. It comes up as a Quicktime plugin for me. What you can do is directly go to the MP3 file and it will play from your music app. Directly type in: www.cigardave.com/audio/05-21-11-1.mp3 into your browser and it will work. The site uses a standard format for naming its MP3 files (MO-DA-YR-#.mp3, where # is for the 1st or 2nd hour of the show) so you can access them relatively easily.

Though perhaps this is the Xoom's way of telling you not to listen to this stuff?

LOL, maybe you are right. I will give your method a try.

Thanks a million.
