G Radio : This is a brand-new streaming Internet Radio Player that comes with unique features:
Volume Control
4-Band Graphic Spectrum
LED status indicator
Lock/Unlock station
Hide/Unhide Controls
User Joined/Left Notifications
In this first release, the radio comes with 84 stations classified into 12 genres/categories:
Pop / Top 40, Dance/Techno, House/Electro, Rock / Metal, R&B / Hip-Hop, Americana,
Latin/Caribbean, Easy Listening, Oldies, Classical, World/Folklore, News/Talk/Comedy
To bring up the Flash Player and start the radio streaming, stand on the DVD (It will spin
one turn around.) The radio will continue playing after you leave the stand. If you no longer
need it, you can unload it by clicking the red (x) button to the right of the Controls Bar.
By default, all avatars that are currently tuned to the radio will hear the same station. This
allows for group listening where synchronisation between all users is wanted (for example in
dance clubs.) However, there are times when you don't want other users to change the station
you're listening to, and this is precisely what the Lock button does: It disconnects your radio
from other users so you can listen to your favorite music without being interrupted.
Of course, you can unlock the station anytime you wish to join back the group.
You can hide the Radio Player by clicking the arrow on the right edge of the Controls Bar.
Please keep in mind this is live streaming from remote servers over which I have no control
and which may be down for maintenance or other reasons. If you select a station and the
Player cannot reach it, it will display a notification message and ask you to try again later.
If the station is still unavailable after a few hours, please drop me a message so that I can
update the stream's URL for the benefit of all users.
