I worked out how to do it and submitted an update to the app store. Yesterday it was approved. Basically I'm streaming live radio from the app using the devices QT player. There are a few people here to have already done this, what I've done is modified the code slightly to allow for the radio to continue streaming when the phone locks, sleeps or navigation throughout the app. No idea what happens when you receive a call though!! It can be found here; http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/freestyle-scooters/id499371179?mt=8 Instructions have been posted, i'll add the link soon.

Alex@TM Apple Fan Posts: 956 Reg: Dec 20, 2011 London, UK 10,560	06/29/12 02:32 AM (13 years ago) This is what I did: - Add array and string to Custom IOS Target Properties. - Add the following code in the audio.m file //Adds ability for audio to play even in screen lock NSError setCategoryErr = nil; NSError activationErr = nil; [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setCategory: AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback error: &setCategoryErr]; [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setActive: YES error: &activationErr]; - Remove following code from the delegate.m file //setup audio session for background sounds. Allow iPod to continue if it's already playing. [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setCategory: AVAudioSessionCategoryAmbient error: nil]; [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setActive: YES error: nil] These were the exact steps that allows for audio to be played in the background from streaming using customURL screen. All the best.
