[Feature Request] Support of webradios (PLS, ASX etc)

[awsms]

Would it be possible to import typical webradio stream files (.pls .m3u) files on Tauon? Also, if these radios give metadatas for each song broadcasted (artistname, songname) to scrobble them? :D

Indeed there is room for improvement with the existing radio function, such as being able to import .pls files. Internet radio seemed kind of outdated to me so I hadn't given it priority. But I can work on it if there's demand.

I'll probably only do .pls though since its by far most common.

Note that you can currently play internet radio if you extract the URL manually and paste it into the "Open Stream..." box. (Only working with BASS backend)

OK I've got some changes. Last.fm scrobbling for radio should be working. Also you can now drag and drop or open with PLS and M3U files to import stations to the internet radio box list.

(Though there's an issue using open with from a web browser with snap. Does seem to work when using open with with a file browser though.)

If you like, you could try out the latest dev build and know what you think so far.

1. snap switch --channel=edge tauon
2. snap refresh You can switch back with:
3. snap switch --channel=edge tauon

Maybe make a backup of Tauon's user data folder (Settings > Function > Open data folder) just in case since I don't fully guarantee downgrade-ability or upgrade-ability from a dev version.

This should be live in the latest release now.

As I mentioned before, there may be an issue opening from some web browsers with the snap version. (I think it might be a permission issue when the browser tries to open the playlist file from a temporary location.)

Hi I think that this functionality is not working with drag and drop. Here is a .m3u file that I drag anbd drop to Tauon, and all I get is an empty "New Playlist", nothing in it.

I am using the Flatpak version v.6.5.4 and I already setup the file access with

sudo flatpak override com.github.taiko2k.tauonmb --filesystem=host

test.m3u

@gerroon Check under MENU > Internet Radio. Stations only go there and not to the playlists.

It creating a blank playlist when you drag n drop is a known quirk.

Ahh, now I see how this supposed to work. Thanks for the pointing it out.
