[C.O.D.]

@black_eagle
Thanks for your answer, very revealing.
Interestingly the station Radio Bob Classic Rock
http://streams.radiobob.de/bob-classicro...diobob.de/
is shown as an mp3 in Kodi and track info is also shown (as also in VLC). The debug log says that the retrieved URL is https://bob.hoerradar.de/radiobob-classicrock-mp3-hq.
If I'm playing this one in VLC I don't get any track info even here but the same music.
In any case I think I have to live with it as it is...

the station Radio Bob Classic Rock

That's a shoutcast stream.  Kodi knows how to get the track/artist info (and art for some shoutcast v2 streams) from shoutcast servers. This is determined from the headers received by Kodi when it first opens the URL.  That info reveals that we are connecting to a shoutcast server so the stream gets re-opened with the correct shoutcast options added to the header that Kodi sends and the data takes a different path through the code to get to the audio player.  Along this path, the artist and track data is extracted.  This doesn't happen with bog-standard mp3 streams which are treated just like a local mp3 file but without trying to read any tags.

[C.O.D.]

@black_eagle
Thanks again for another very revieling one 👍

Indeed.  The problem here is that Kodi does not look for tags in .mp3 files that are streamed from the internet because in many cases the tags are simply not present.

That is not the problem here.  The server doesn't return the values that Kodi is looking for to resend with Icy-Metadata: 1

Code:

Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store
Content-Type: audio/mpeg
Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT
Server: QuantumCast Streamer (Version v1.10.2 SHA:5023419f0cb48abfa9f29eb27f956ccbb73f11e3 21.05.03 20:36:40)
Vary: Origin
X-Quantumcast-Channelkey: radio21_atam41o_agkt
Date: Thu, 20 May 2021 22:11:45 GMT
Connection: close
Transfer-Encoding: chunked

As a test I added m_state->m_httpheader.GetValue("content-type") == "audio/mpeg" it does play with Shoutcast data

I then tried with this url and it works from a strm file

Code:

https://bestofrockfm.stream.vip/classic/mp3-256/bestofrock.fm|Icy-Metadata=1

Hey, thanks for this useful tip - now I can enjoy these streams in Kodi

Hi,
I'm using kodi on libreelec.
If I want to listen a radio from the add-on with a command line like this:

Code:

curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Player.Open", "params": {"item":{"file":"plugin://plugin.audio.radio_de/station/104717"}},"id": 0 }' http://192.168.0.100:8080/jsonrpc

I have got the following answer:

Code:

Error: Kodi: (kodi) Message error, unknown type in OnPlay/OnResume message: 'unknown' from '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Player.OnPlay","params":{"data":{"item":{"type":"unknown"},"player":{"playerid":-1,"speed":1}},"sender":"xbmc"}}'

nothing happens until I ask again the same command line. In this case, radio start but still have a error message:

Code:

Error: Kodi: (kodi) Message error, unknown type in OnPlay/OnResume message: 'unknown' from '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Player.OnPlay","params":{"data":{"item":{"type":"unknown"},"player":{"playerid":0,"speed":1}},"sender":"xbmc"}}'

Does someone has a idea?

I don't have this behavior if i tried to start a web content instead of a radio.de plugin content

Code:

curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Player.Open", "params": {"item":{"file":"http://statslive.infomaniak.ch/playlist/radionova/radionova-high.mp3/playlist.m3u"}},"id": 4 }' http://192.168.0.100:8080/jsonrpc

thanks

Hi, 

I'd love to listen to the Funradio Live stream from Slovakia, but it always makes KODI crash. Other streams from the same Radio provider work OK. On the Radio.de site it also plays OK.

Hello, when I play any of the "AIR" Indian radio stations (AIR Vividh Bharati Bengaluru, AIR FM Rainbow Bengauluru, AIR FM Gold)...they fail to play or crash Kodi!

I'm able to play stations from your "Top Stations" list. So your add-on works for me on certain stations.
I also tried switching skins, back to default "Estuary" and same problem with the Indian radio stations I mentioned.

I have a new Kodi Matrix installation on Nvidia Shield Pro (Android) using either Amber skin or Estuary skin.

[Jeffers24]

I have added a number of stations to 'My Stations' and created a widget in Aeon Nox SiLVO in Kodi 19 to display them on my Radio page.

An option I didn't add is displayed 'Add Custom Station', is there a setting so that I could suppress this being displayed so that icons only show for my stations?

[C.O.D.]

I'd also like to see an option like this.
It would also be sufficient to put this item into the context menu (if you ask me) so that it's not visible in the widgets...

[BreizhReloaded]

Hello guys! Does this addon provide any PVR integration in order to use the dedicated radio section in Kodi? I couldn't find any at the moment. I can work on a IPTV Manager integration if that sounds interesting for you

[kobyboy]

Thanks for the addon but no local stations are populating any solutions Thanks.

@enen92

I have a couple of questions about an implementation detail of this addon I would rather not discuss in public. Is there any chance I could get in touch with you or another maintainer?

[enen92]

Send a PM or reach out at enen92 at kodi.tv. However the code is open and available for everyone and discussions are supposed to be public.

Thanks, I've looked for a PM option but couldn't find one. I guess that could be because I just recently registered. I'll mail you in a bit.
