That's odd.

Isn't the contents of
http://jungletrain.net/128kbps.m3u

The following:

Sorry if I'm looking over something obvious.

Oh I re-read your post. I didn't look on shoutcast's site.

Perhaps there's an issue on the way it is listed there.

I'll check when I get home as I can't get there from home.

Thanks!

How can i add radio stations to shoutcast? I've tried the search part but it doesnt find anything for me.

1) http://www.basso.fi/bassostreami.m3u
2) http://www.radiorock.fi/external/player / http://stream.radiorock.fi:8000
3) http://www.radiocity.fi/nettiradio/

Those 3 would be nice add to my list. All are finnish radio stations.

It is still broken in the shoutcast database - I can't fix their database Wink

But you can use my Radio Add-on (It's also in the official Add-on Repository), Jungletrain works there.

You can't add custom stations with this Add-on.
But you can simply create a STRM or M3U file yourself (just search the xbmc wiki) and place it in any of your audio sources. Then you can play them with xbmc.

Allrighty then, thnx. I'll try..

**kricker** · 2013-02-16, 19:36

I have a strange issue with this add-on and radio add-on. Both of them take up to 5 minutes to start playing an audio stream. This happens on all 3 of my Windows XBMC installs. Any idea what could cause this?

In the above log snippet you can see where it took ~2 minutes to start playing the stream.

After some testing it appears that my using a MySQL music database causes my issue. When I remove that from my advancedsettings.xml file the streams playback within seconds. The question now would be, why does this happen?

I'm suffering the same issue but have used a MySQL music database for quite sometime. The problem with the delay in opening a radio stream began 1 - 2 weeks ago. I mostly listen to shoutcast nowadays so maybe I'll discontinue use of the MySQL database for music.

I would say that the delay started occurring around the same time as when I updated to the latest XBMC (Frodo), but couldn't say for certain...

**kricker** · 2013-02-17, 00:17

I can't say either. I'll need to install an old build and see how it behaves.

sphere · (This post was last modified: 2013-02-17, 16:39 by sphere.)

I don't think that the issue you describe is really add-on related. I know that XBMC saves some data in the database when you start playback.

**kricker** · 2013-02-17, 16:31

After figuring out what the issue is I agree. I need to investigate elsewhere.

jnecr · 2013-02-17, 16:44

I tried your method of removing the MySQL music database and Shoutcast was a bit quicker but it still took 20-30 seconds to load each step in finding a station (by genre, choose genre, choose station).

I've also tried pinging shoutcast.com from my XBMC computer and another computer (on the same network) and neither of them return a ping in a satisfactory amount of time. I can go to www.shoutcast.com with no delay, but pinging doesn't work. Can a domain disallow pings??

Please upload a Debug Log

**Jules** · 2013-02-19, 21:29

Fantastic Plugin. thank you!!!

Just a side note I noticed while playing stations, I don't know if this is an xbmc thing or not, but if I play a station and click on another station to play, it will not play the station but rather it will add it to the queue. I flipped over to the now playing/queue and the station id number is listed for both stations but I have to click on the second station to play it from there. Is there any way to allow each radio station to play once I click on it and not have it queue the station so I have to perform the aformentioned steps, from within the add-on? This is a minor user interface thing, overall very good design and layout!

Thanks and keep up the solid work sphere, love to see what you can do next!

@Jules
Don't you have Queue Songs On Selection enabled under Audio in settings?

Yes it is checked, would this be why it is doing that? If I am currently listening to a station and I want to listen to another station, when I click on the other station it queues it directly but does not play the new station until I go into the queue and click on it. I do not want to lose the queue functionality elsewhere/.
