I don't use playlists much, so didn't know you could do this. That's probably the better way to go. I found that the easiest way to use the Favorites plugin for ad hoc radio stations is to just edit the SlimServer config file, where the Favorites plugin keeps its settings. Then I can also display what I want as the station name in the list. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18825 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Thanks all... Odd process, use the web interface to tune in, then the remote interface to add to favorites. I'm surprised that with all the focus on streaming radio this ability isn't built into the server and manageable through the web interface. IIRC, you can do this in SqueezeNetwork but if you're running a local server then using SqueezeNetwork for anything at all is just a pain in the butt. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18825 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I think you do it via Slim Server. If you go to the web interface, on the left side there is a link for RADIO - click on "Radio Tune In". On the resulting page you can input a URL for the radio station. I've just tried it with the Australian station Triple J http://abc.net.au/streaming/triplej/triplej.m3u It looks like you need to save the resulting playlist and then play the radio station from your playlists. I have just done this & it works. I don't know if there is a way to make it show up under the Internet Radio menu on the SB. [edit] Hmm, seems I was too slow. Presumably you make it a favourite by creating a playlist and then adding that to favourites. -- ianjohnson_nz ianjohnson_nz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18825 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Lazy way: use the 'Radio Tune In' on the web interface and paste the URL there. Once playing, you can make it a favorite. Harder way (which I do use sometimes... don't ask why..) is to make a playlist with the station in it. -- snarlydwarf snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18825 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
