Hello,
do you have an example to show me ?
Sure,
the stream I am mostly listening to is FM4, an Austrian alternative radio station: http://mp3stream1.apasf.apa.at:8000
Others are e.g.: Rockantenne MP3: http://www.rockantenne.de/webradio/rockantenne.m3u Smoothjazz MP3: http://smoothjazz.com/streams/smoothjazz_128.pls
Here is a picture from my current setup: http://ms-dos.org/demo/postings/foobar_streams.png
Thanks Johannes
This is something I'd like to investigate for the next release. More investigation than real work, just to see if/how we can make it work.
@jrohrauer if you're still there, I have a few questions for you :)
How would you see this feature in your favourite music player? Would it be something like:
Can a stream "finishes" ? (should it play the next one automatically?)
I think some streams can be never-ending, like radio stations, when there is no music, they just play silence, but pick up new data as soon as owner sets it to play something.
I'd say this can be a separate kind of tracks that use remote url as data source.
Hi, this is on a related note, so I am posting here instead of cluttering the issues tracker (it is not an issue!). Does the player expect to support podcasts ? Especially through something like RSS feeds?
Hi!
It's not on the roadmap, can you give me an example of rss feeds so I can have a look at the technical implementations? :)
Hi, sure! For instance, this: https://citationsneeded.libsyn.com/ is a show I follow, and I would like to be able to subscribe to its RSS feed (the fourth button from the left, next to the email icon - also, sorry if you knew that I'm just trying to be as descriptive as possible!). Whenever they release a new episode it will show up in the player. This will probably add a bit of complexity to the code. Some player I have seen this on are Rhythmbox, Canatata, and Clementine. Thanks!
Greetings,
much of my music comes from internet streams. But I do not want to have them open in browser windows. Maybe it would be possible to add streaming support in a future release.
Cheers Johannes
