MC will not play an AAC internet radio stream:
http://www.radioparadise.com/musiclinks/rp_128aac-2.m3u

(which contains:
http://scfire-dtc-aa06.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1049
http://stream-ny2.radioparadise.com:8018/)

MC will not play these streams, yet foobar plays the same streams without issue.
Is there a setting I must change?
Playback for AAC is set to Auto (I believe this is the default setting?)

It's probably using a Winamp plug-in.  If you open the URL in IE, it says "Requires Winamp".  Start a new thread if you want to work on it.

I could not get that message to appear. Also I take that to mean any player since they tend to use Winamp on that site like most people use "klenex" to mean facial tissue.

So, can anyone help me to get this stream to play in MC14?
They have mp3 streams but the 128AAC actually sounds better than their 192mp3 (which reaches max capacity of listeners first).

Make sure you can play AAC files without using Quicktime.   Try the wiki for information on this.  There is a DirectShow filter that can play AAC.

I tried the DirectShow filter and the Quicktime engine in MC, even tried sending it out to foobar to play it all with no sucess.

Make sure you can play a local aac file with DirectShow.
