Onkyo TX-NR809 & Marantz M-CR611 working; BUT 'stations.yml' problem #48

Open vcch opened 4 years ago

vcch commented 4 years ago

Using PiHole on Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi 4, I have this working well, with browsing and searching and 'Last Played' all functional.

However, I have erratic success with stations.yml. I wonder if certain kinds of URL are OK and some not; or are international stations problematic? I haven't been able to pick out the precise issue. On the Onkyo (which is older) 'My Stations' simply does not appear; on the Marantz it says 'My Stations feature is not configured'. I have two Onkyo Receivers, and 2 of the Marantz, and they are always in sync about this. I have had it working on both, but the stations.yml was at an earlier stage then. My guess is that it is a formatting issue of some sort, as I don't get any errors as such. Do they have to be 'VTuner approved' URLs - I got a hint of that in someone's post elsewhere?

Here is the text of my 'stations.yml' :-

Each URL 'works' in a browser... i.e. no dead ones.

The key (to those who have never used YAML, except for this) is that tabs are a no-no; everything has to be done with characters. It's also good form to start a YML file with three dashes on their own line, and to finish with three full-stops on their own line.

What is also really helpful to know is that there are lots of on-line YAML verifiers accessible by using your favourite search-engine. These help pick up any accidental errors, by just cutting and pasting your putative YAML text in their proffered text-box:)

I think the issue is that your receiver doesn't understand the file format delivered in the URLs above. Try this one:

Note: I wasn't able to find a good stream for Jazz FM or Radio Bach, the others should be ok (fingers crossed).
