Getting connected

Once you have the correct version of Windows Media Player installed on your system, simply click on: LAUNCH HELLENIC RADIO LIVE

The Hellenic Radio player will open, after which there will be delay while you connect to the peer-to-peer network; once you are connected, you will get a buffering message, when it reaches 100% buffering, you should receive Hellenic Radio loud and clear.

The first time you connect to the Hellenic Radio Player, a peer-to-peer (P2P) client control will automatically be downloaded and installed - there will be a delay while this takes place, dependant on the speed of your Internet connection. Please be patient while the control downloads... Depending on your browser security settings, you may be prompted to accept the download and installation of the control from Rawflow Technologies, which you will need to accept. After the control has been successfully installed, a connection attempt to the peer-to-peer network shall be established; once you are connected and the player buffering completes, you should receive Hellenic Radio loud and clear.

If the audio reception seems slow or broken, please set the buffer in Windows Media Player to 30 seconds or more. This means the player will preload more of the audio before starting the stream, in order to compensate for occasional bandwidth difficulties, such as when downloading big files or surfing graphic intensive sites whilst trying to listen.
