You can listen to Barix Radio using an Exstreamer device.

With Streaming Client FW

Write in one of the URL:

http://barix.streamguys.net:80/barix_hi for a MP3 128kbps stream

or

http://barix.streamguys.net:80/barix_aac for a AAC+ 32kbps stream.

Note that AAC is only supported on Exstreamer devices labelled AAC+ capable.

With Exstreamer standard FW

Set the "Mode" to "3 Streaming Puller"

Write in "Server Path: barix.streamguys.net:80/barix_hi

Note that AAC stream in not supported in standard FW.

DNS resolution

In Streaming Client the DNS resolution is performed at every stream reconnection, while in Exstreamer standard FW the DNS resolution is performed only at boot up. If the numeric IP of the DNS is changing then you will have to reboot the device if running standard FW.

In order to perform DNS resolution, a DNS Server needs to be defined. This is done automatically when using DHCP, but if you use static IP then also DNS Server IP address has to be defined in the Network Setting page of the WEB User Interface.
