Yahoo LAUNCHcast radio

[alanpaladka]

Does anyone know how to add Launchcast radio to Yahoo! messenger Indian version? I have seen that It was included in 7.0 BETA but in Final release, it has been replaced by Yahoo! Cricket.

try this....go to MESSENGER on top and clik on preferences. under category, select CONTENT TABS. then move YAHOO MUSIC to 'displayed tabs' if its not already in there. then move it right at the top.

this way, launchcast will come by default. but by clickin the lil buttons under it, u can c the other stuff too.


hope dat helps..

Thanks ishaan for the Reply.
But the option "Yahoo Music" is not available in both category. I have attached a screenshot of that. Please advise me.

There must be some problem... Launchcast is available to all the versions after 6.0.
Try installing.. it again!!

And.... by the way... u can't listen to hindi songs on launch cast, at least as of now! Though we can hope to hear them soon in future... due to keen interests of companies in Indian Market!


Well.. i have a question too though!!!

In the digit Nov. issue.... there was a Messenger picture having wrtten "Yahoo messenger with voice" in the title bar. I have the latest Messenger too! And it does support all the features!
My question is: does that thing appear when we download the US version only?

Voice and LAUNCHcast radio were available in 7.0 BETA India version. But in final version, they have dissapeared. So I uninstalled the 7.0 final version and reinstalled 7.0BETA. Now all are working fine.

I just visited http://in.messenger.yahoo.com and downloaded a program which downloads setup files after . But whatever you say, Iam happy with 7.0BETA as it has all options.

I find bollywood.mu the best. In case u get a codec error when u click on windows media player option in bollywood.mu.... a more direct way of listneing to it is:
Open windows medi player
Do Ctrl+U
Type in http://bmr2.radiomoris.net"

No dude. I downloaded the Indian version today also. But the result is same. My friends are also not able to get LAUNCHcast radio in their messengers. So they are now using US version and Iam using Indian 7.0BETA version. Are u sure? Your messenger is downloaded from http://in.messenger.yahoo.com ?

If you like to listen to hindi songs of your choice rather than whatever the site streams. raaga.com is my favourite place. But, it only plays on Internet explorer and requires real player. It lets you select which songs you want and make playlists out of them, if you have registered (free).
