There is an internet radio station that is just awesome for chilling out to (particularly when hanging out with a chic). Its called Buddha Radio.
You can listen to it at
www.buddharadio.com.au and there is an android and iphone app as well.
I managed to create a .strm file which only contains rtsp://wms2.scahw.com.au/live/barry.stream
I can play Buddha Radio using this .strm file in XBMC and it will play the Buddha Radio stream successfully.
But i was wondering if it would be easy for someone to create an XBMC Add-on that
a) shows the current artist and track name (similar to Apple TV does when you AirPlay from the iPhone app)
b) has a nice Buddha Radio logo during play
I just thought it would be a nice quick and simple project for one the guru's out there...
Also - Buddha Radio works on TuneIn.com radio service website and TuneIn android app. But does not play on TuneIn XBMC Add-On..

Shouldn't be difficult.
I'll take a look when i get home tonight
I just found a listen.pls file which works in my WinAmp and iTunes.
All it contains is
Code:
[playlist]NumberOfEntries=1File1=http://sc.buddharadio.com:80/
And now just discovered they are running a ShoutCast server.
http://sc.buddharadio.com/index.html
Version 0.1
Just pulls the stream into XBMC with some Fanart.
Nothing fancy and no currently playing, will look at this over the weekend if i get time.
Any feedback from anyone, had over 200 downloads so far?
EDIT: Nov 2015 - Like many others this broadcaster is now rejecting streams that don't come from their website. You may be able to get around this by visiting their webpage first, but i have not tried.
No further updates will be made on this plguin - sorry guys.

Works great DoubleT, thanks ever so much for your efforts.
Thanks also to lyrical for getting this all started...I love Buddha Radio
Great addon working on something similar but how to get two streams in this plugin??
