I'm using Moxilla 1.4.1, and I have both RealOnePlayer and gxine /xine
installed.

Swissjazz gives me sound with the realaudio player, but I get the same 
result with nostalgie. It appears that they are using wmf (Windows
Media Format) ... which, AFAIK, has no equivalent open source codecs
available for linux. I'd simply drop that station, if I were you.

I *highly recommend* this site for finding audio and video content
http://www.virtualtuner.com/
The mantainer of this site is very quick to respond to reports of
outdated, missing, or incorrect links.

auguri,

Elton ;-)
