Hi Andy

Sure can.

On the main page goto listen now and select radio wizard and this will open a new window. In this window select Change Settings and go through the wizard this will allow you to set both your connect speed and your desired program. You can also select internal or external playback meaning if internal it uses a browser window for play back and if external it launches your media player program and players through this both are media player just played differently.

Respond if you need more help.

Dave

Just as a follow up note, I believe you need to have a mp3 codec installed with your windows mediaplayer. Windows does not come preconfigured for mp3 streaming, so check the windows mediaplayer help files on how to obtain the mp3 codec.

Winamp remains the best way to listen to Highlander Radio. Especially if you have broadband you can take advantage of our MP3Pro stream which boosts the sound quality to near CD listening levels.

True I forgot that but in my case it downloaded automatically so you should still be all set.
