Is there a way to play radio stations which require the abacast plug-in through Media Center?  The plug-in appears to stream to Windows Media Player on port 4001, but I can't figure out if there is a way to launch and play it through Media Center instead.

The stations' web pages all launch the stream through a javascript function call similar to:
GoAbacast('music.wpr.abacast.com:80/wpr-music-48', 'wpr-music-48')

I created a small local html page which calls the script when you open the URL in Media Center (so you don't need to click on anything), but it still launches a new instance of Media Player and plays the music there instead of inside Media Center.

Some examples:
http://www.jazz24.org/    (the high bandwidth streams)
http://www.jazz88online.org/listen.php   (high quality stream)
http://www.wpr.org/webcasting/live.cfm   (abacast enabled streams)

Any suggestions?  Thanks!
