Not all stations support https connection and no indication which works and which doesn't #106

We need to use an https connection for our js client app which streams from radio-browser. So we override each http call for the url of a station to be https and try to play the edited url with a simple js fetch command. Some stations work (we get the stream and it plays) and some dont, we couldnt find a way to filter out those stations that could not be reached with a secure connection and remove them from our list automatically. What are we missing?

you cannot just change http and https for streams! radio-browser is just an index like google if a stream does not support one or the other radio-browser cannot help you with that.
