Failed to connect to - Connection fails after a few seconds

[adnanvaldes]

Hi there,

I just wanted to start by saying I absolutely love your project!

Anyway, after adding a stream to PyRadio the player starts and plays for a few seconds before stopping and saying "Failed to connect". I tried with .m3u, .asx, and .pls files, but none of them seem to work. I switching from https to http connections and making sure PyRadio was not forcing http, but still not luck.

I also tried opening the streams through the VLC player GUI, and in that scenario the stream is uninterrupted.

Hi @AdnanValdes

I just had a look at these stations (tried axs, m3u, pls) and I can confirm that there is a problem here, although the behaviour is different for me. I think that the problem has to do with the way the debug info is written in the log file... Well, that probably means nothing to you, but I think I have a way to "fix" it.

You will have to wait a bit longer (it's already 02:20 here :) ) We'll talk tomorrow...

Hi again @AdnanValdes

Would you be so kind to check my latest devel commit? Just run on a console:

pyradio -U --sng-devel

and then double-click the update.bat file in the Explorer window that will be opened.

This will update your installation to my devel branch...

If the station does actually play, can you also please check its info (press "i) and tell me (a screenshot maybe) what it shows? I'm having problems parsing this station's info...

This is what I'm getting here

BTW, what is your vlc version? I'm on the latest (3.0.14)

S.

Hello @s-n-g ,

I'm using your development branch and I can confirm that the radio station is now playing! Thank you.

Here's a screenshot of what I see and the information on PyRadio. I'm using VLC 3.0.14 as well, but VLC doesn't show any information about the current track or anything like that either.

Hi again @AdnanValdes

I finally got the station's info read. Doing the same thing

pyradio -U --sng-devel

and then double-click the update.bat file in the Explorer window that will be opened.

This is what I get

Song titles are not displayed because vlc does not provide them (for this station). I have them displayed on linux mpv only. Either way, that's not a bug...

Please do confirm you get the same thing so we can close this issue S.

Hello @s-n-g,

Yes, I get all the information. I'll mark this issue as closed. Thank you for the help!
