Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Can listen to the stream from the "THIS ONE" link (https://www.thesound.co.nz/home.player.html) and the direct link http://tunein-icecast.mediaworks.nz/sound_128kbps), with Firefox and VLC under Fedora linux. I did notice that I cannot always get to the first link if my ad/tracking blocker blocks "Brightcove Player". If I unblock the player, the first link works.

Chrome loads and plays the THIS ONE stream just from clicking on the link. The second direct link causes Chrome to try to download the stream. Says it will "open it" when the download finishes, probably have to wait 20 years :)

I have been aware of Opera but never used it.

W10 works for me as well.

@ Grogster
Cleaning up a workbench today & realised I had an old Penty 4 with an old Linux Mint 32 on it (+ XP).
Fired it up. Your station link worked OK on Chromium & also Firefox.

Good to know.

Thanks, chums. It is obviously Opera browser related.
I have not had a chance to try the link in VLC, but I hope to try that later tonight.
