List of radio stations available?

Post by yazyazoo »

I was just wondering if there was a list or could a sticky be made of the available radio stations available. I was wondering if Pandora, Slacker, Grooveshark, Shoutcast, etc are working on the Asus? I have the router and am waiting for my USB CM119 sound card to start on this project.

Thanks!

Shoutcast, yes. Pandora, no. I am not familiar with the others.

The best list of stations I know of is the one at shoutcast.com.

Hi,
Just built my Internet Radio following Jeff's instructions. Works well. Just need to understand what stations I can add. I followed Jeff's suggestion of going to Shoutcast.com but did not understand how to find URL:Port#. I am sure I am missing something but does anyone have any listing of stations they wish to share or information to follow to understand how to acquire radio station info to put into my router?

Thanks,
RWP

I must admit, it's not very easy the view the url on the shoutcast website. Go to shoutcast. Find the station you like. Right click on the blue (underlined) station name and choose something like 'open in new tab'. After the new tab opens a download dialog appears. Save to your pc. Open the .pls file with notepad. And there we have list of urls for that station.
Good luck.

Thank you. This was really easy.
I did right click on a station, selected "Open with Browse" and selected Notepad.
Go to the Notepad that opens, grab the IP address:port number and drop it into my router.
Works great.

Thank you again. Hope this also helps others.

It used to be much easier to find this information, but the new Shoutcast.com website makes it much harder find the station information. :x

gerben, thanks for the tip on using notepad to open the .pls file. Usually I will open the station in iTunes, then right click on it and "Get Info".

In my "Slug Radio Project" http://www.flickr.com/photos/rigasw/set ... 708689711/ I use podcast bounce, so I can enter station addresses in "m3u" and "pls" format and play them with mpc / mpd.

"Podcast bounce" is a xinetd service. Excellent solution!
(http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Hack:podcast-bounce)

Adding a bunch of stations looks like that:

The string "http://linksys:8082/?feed" is part of the proxy "podcast-bounce", "linksys" is the name of my slug and 8082 is the port used by "podcast-bounce".:

Code: Select all

mpc add http://linksys:8082/?feed=http://www.worldfm.co.nz:8882/worldfm.mp3.m3u


Maybe that could be used with openwrt too?

I get my stations from either shoutcast or from http://www.listenlive.eu/index.html

Just read the details page you suggested above and I must say I'm impressed with what this little hack can do. Thanks for sharing this information with the rest of us. Keep up the good work!
