*** NEW VERSION ***

I've just finished modifying my XM Radio Gadget for Windows Vista Sidebar.  Works with the new XM/SIRIUS player. Use your XM Radio Online account to listen right from your Windows Vista sidebar.

You can download it here.  *** NEW VERSION 12/27/2008 *** xmradio.zip (35.21 kb)

Rename the extension to gadget - then double click to install it.  Go to Settings, enter your XM login info - USE YOUR FULL EMAIL ADDRESS FOR YOUR LOGIN.  Once logged in, click "channel" to get the channel flyout and select a channel.

Ok, I installed the gadget, it connects to XM, shows that it is playing, but I get no sound at all.  Yes, my speakers are working.  Any ideas on what I can try to fix this?

Does it work with a Sirrius subscription? if not someone should make a strictly Sirrius gadget.

No - sorry, doesn't work with Sirrius, but there are gadgets out there that do.
