Internet radio in this is a legacy soundbrigde feature. It never worked for anything else.
Yet there is a patch/fork to this claiming to add exactly what you are looking for: https://github.com/Impakt/forked-daapd/commits/master
Haven't tested it though
yeah... that's the thing. I tried to compile it but no success.
internet radio worked quite well on the original mt-daapd and it was actually the one feature I used every morning to get up-to date during breakfast.
I was missing internet radio support too, so I had a look at the patch @elwertk mentioned. It's a difficult patch, because it contains a lot of stuff which seems irrelevant, and also it doesn't actually add support for http locations in m3u playlists. So instead I hacked together my own solution, and now I have it working at home. If you're interested you can find it here: https://github.com/ejurgensen/forked-daapd (or if you just want the streaming part, here: https://github.com/ejurgensen/forked-daapd/tree/streaming). Note that it doesn't support showing which artist is currently playing.
@ejurgensen thanks for that. however I cannot get it to compile. this is the error:
evhttp/http.c:28:26: fatal error: event-config.h: No such file or directory
any idea what went wrong?
ok. got it right. libevent had some version problems
sudo apt-get install libevent1-dev
solved the issue
Playlists are showing up however with zero items in them. I used m3u formatted lists for the internet radio stations. Something that I'm missing here?
Do you have a link to the m3u? Then I can try it here. Also, are you using ffmpeg or libav? And which version? It depends on ffmpeg/libav to detect the stream format, and if that doesn't succeed the stream won't be added to the playlist.
this is the content of the .m3u:
http://dradio.ic.llnwd.net/stream/dradio_dlf_m_a
http://dradio.ic.llnwd.net/stream/dradio_dwissen_m_a
I'm using ffmpeg
I've got forked-daapd running on OpenWrt with ffmpeg 0.11 and on Ubuntu with libav 0.8, and I tried adding the m3u in both. It don't work at first, but that was because cutting and pasting the m3u from here produced some hidden characters which the scanner didn't like. So now I added two commits (latest is this https://github.com/ejurgensen/forked-daapd/commit/799fe9e6845bed51e280f93593defcfa4c48b52d) taking care of that. Then it worked as it should, the playlist was added with two entries. I could also play the music.
However, I have a feeling the trouble you are having might be something else. You could try setting the loglevel to debug and then finding the line "Playlist contains URL entry". Then check the lines following that line (post them here if you want to). Anything suspicious? Ignore any lines where ffmpeg says Header missing, that's ok.
hm..
now the station shows up but in itunes an exclamation amrk shows beside it when I try to play it.
this is the log:

Yes, I get that too. It only works if you use Remote. If you use iTunes I don't understand why you don't stream directly?
Yeah! its working! of course I normally use the remote. But since I was using the computer now I tried with iTunes. Anyways normally ITunes is working more reliable than Remote. So I figured I first try iTunes.
Thanks very much. that's great now working internet radio!
@ejurgensen - could you please contact me regarding forked-daapd. I think I have some information regarding the DMAP protocol that could be beneficial for both of us. My mail is at my profile.
m3u file with content
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,Indie -
http://in.icy1.abacast.com/entravision-indieaac-48
results with empty playlist. Nothing 'extraordinary' in logs...
Jasonmc's version is no longer maintained, consider using my fork (where your m3u should work).
uh, sorry, wrong repo - I am using Your fork (on raspi) ;) and still get empty playlist.
I would like to be able to stream internet radio through forked-daapd. Unfortunately putting http://... locations into playlists does not do the trick.
I already brought this up here: https://github.com/jasonmc/forked-daapd/issues/87 but thought I raise the issue again cause this would be the icing on the cake of forked-daapd
Any suggestions?
