This site has a good list of radio stations:

So this is what I could come up with:

Unfortunately, on Ubuntu Touch, the mediaplay does not report any meta data. Therefore its not possible to display the current song title.
It would work on desktop, but not on UT.

When running on the phone, there would be warnings like this:

[WW 2021-07-30 14:04:23.912965] [codec.h:148@decode_argument] Unknown metadata key "xesam:genre" while decoding dbus message
[WW 2021-07-30 14:04:23.913063] [codec.h:148@decode_argument] Unknown metadata key "xesam:title" while decoding dbus message

Which leads me to believe its a restriction on UT currently. What a pity.

@s710 for info https://github.com/wdehoog/shoutcast-ut/issues/20
But THANK YOU for your app !

EDIT : V 1 quickly said, not open bug report, only one station can be kept (only tested manually added) as favorite. The second one does not register or erases the first one (Volla, BQ E5 HD).

@domubpkm added via search or manually?

domubpkm · 30 Jul 2021, 18:40

@s710 I said before : manually url added (but i tested only that, no tested search).

domubpkm · 30 Jul 2021, 18:47

@s710 added via search work

s710 · 30 Jul 2021, 18:55

@domubpkm well when adding manually, the unique ID of the station will be a hash of the URL. In case you try to add the same URL twice, it would not work. Maybe thats the problem?

domubpkm · 30 Jul 2021, 19:49

@s710 I don't know the problem. The best thing is that you try with different stations as it is more easy to see than to explain.. Two stations can't be manually added as favourites indeed but i noticed if i close and open the app, the last radio station manually added entered as a potential favourite take the place of the first favourite manually added... I stop to explain...

@s710 Thanks for the application. I was able to store three stations from search. (I did not try more than that.) Oddly, delete was swipe to the left rather than right.

s710 · 31 Jul 2021, 07:15

@cliffcoggin what do you mean with swipe left rather than right?

@s710 said in Audioplayer / internet stream / webradio:

its not possible to display the current song title.

Workaround :

s710 · 31 Jul 2021, 08:16

@cliffcoggin Okay I see, as per https://phone.docs.ubuntu.com/en/apps/design/building-blocks/list-items#actions the delete action should be when swiping from left to right.
Coming from iOS (where its the other way round), I just didn't know this

I have published v1.1 which switches positions, delete is now swipe to right.

Also the manual stream favourite saving had a typo, thanks to @domubpkm for reporting, its also fixed.

And thanks to @Vistaus who translates almost faster than I can publish

@s710 Blimey, that was quick. Well done.

domubpkm · 31 Jul 2021, 12:53

@s710 Manuall stream favourite saving works fine now. Thanks.
Small suggestion: make the icons of the manually added stations, editable, so that we can choose them later.

Radio seems to be broken for searching and adding new stations and this, i don't know since when.
