There's a Internet Radio Station called Sun FM in Sri Lanka. Among those radio stations running in Sri Lanka, Sun FM is one of my best radio stations I really like to listen everyday.
I'm listening it by online. But the problem came when I'm trying to listen it via RhythemBox Player. when I'm going to run that, error comes and says "Couldn't start playback, This appears to be a text file."
Here is the URL of Sun FM Online Radio – http://www.sunfm.lk/fb_frame.php
And this is the URL of Sun FM web site – http://www.sunfm.lk/
Guys.., how can I add this station in the correct way and listen? What do I want to do to configure this problem?

Actually, I know this is an old issue, but I fugured out how to "guess" any stream possible...
On your radio station´s webpage, using chrome, right click the player, select inspect. somewhere there shall be a flag named http://xxxxxxxxxxx.xx:1183274>
For example, I wanted to listen to Radio Horizonte (A Chilean station, very nice btw) But Adding it to Rhytmbox was a pain in the ass, until I thought of that.
this is their streaming link http://nowplaying.mediastre.am/station/5124f1b4ed596bde7d000017
and this is what you´re looking for..
