title: Flex/Flash Shoutcast player
body: <p>I am trying to build a flash player for my company's Shoutcast server, and have seen a few articles about it on the 'net, including this SO question <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1273454/how-to-stream-a-shoutcast-radio-broadcast-in-flash-shoutcast-flash-player">here</a>.  </p>
  
  <p>However, I can't seem to get the audio stream to actually play.  It seems to be connecting alright, but calling stream.play() doesn't seem to do anything.  </p>
  
  <p>I have tried the code in the SO question I have linked to, and have also tried something similar to this (sorry i don't remember the exact syntax):  </p>
  
  <pre><code>public function stream() {  
      private var url:URLREQUEST = "my.domain.com";
      private var sStream:Sound = new Sound();
      sStream.load(url);
      sStream.play();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If anyone has any revelations for me I'd appreciate it.</p>
